1 lb celery root/celeriac (remove skin)
1 medium parsley root, if available use
a small amount of parsley stalks and leaves
(add these about 5-10 minutes
before the end of cooking)
1 lb red onion
DIRECTIONS:
Pour pure drinking water in a pot, just enough to cover all the vegetables.
Bring to a boil; then set to a low fire, whether you’re using a slow cooker or cooking over a stove. Cover the pot to keep the steam in. Simmer for about 2 hours or until the vegetables turn soft.
Once cooked, run the vegetables through a food mill/processor. You may include the garlic in the cooking stage, or squeeze it in after all of these steps if you prefer.
Serve warm.
Let the soup cool before storing. Keep it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator and consume it within 48 hours. To reheat it, simmer over a stove, do not use a microwave oven.
