- 1
Peel onions and dice. Braise in a pot with butter until translucent. In the meantime skin celery and dice. Dice also the chestnuts.
- 2
Add the celery and chestnuts to the onions, braise for a minute (or less) and deglaze generously with white wine. Let simmer for a couple of minutes. Add cream and broth. Let simmer for 20 min.
- 3
Put the soup in a food processor or or use a hand-held blender. Season with salt and pepper.
- 4
For the cranberry topping: wash and pat dry 250 g cranberries. Put in a small pot with 50 g sugar and 2 tbsp red port wine, stew for 5-10 min. Add 1-2 tsp balsamic vinegar. The sour taste of this topping perfectly balances the creamy slightly sweet soup. (The photo shows only half the amount of cranberries - for two servings.)
- 5
And elegant topping alternative for guests: roast a duck breast on its skin until crispy. Roast for a minute on the other side. Cut into thin slices and put in the hot cream soup. The meat will cook in the soup and will be very tender.
- 6
Or serve with crispy bacon.

Caramelized Tomato Soup
This is a "slightly" more ellaborate recipe than your run-on-the-mill canned tomato soup, and it takes a bit longer to make than just open the can and heat. But the smells in the kitchen and the smiles at the table make it well worth it!It uses tomatoes in three different forms (fresh, canned, and tomato paste) which gives it a texture no canned tomato soup can hope to imitate!For this recipe, I use panela cheese, a Mexican white cheese. Should you not find it, you can substitute with paneer, farmer's cheese, or any white firm cheese. In a pinch, cubed mozzarella will do the trick!

Butternut Squash Soup
This type of squash has a fragrant aroma but is not as dense as our local pumpkins. Enjoy this butternut squash soup with crispy buttered bread or, for a healthier option, with whole wheat bread. It's an easy and light breakfast.

Spiced Butternut Squash Soup
I added spices as an accent so I could enjoy a homemade rich and creamy butternut squash soup. It goes well with a piece of bread with dried fruits or pain d'épices.If you blend the ingredients in the blender a little longer so as to grind the spices the soup will be smooth!Substitute the milk with heavy cream and you will have restaurant quality taste!

Flavorful and simple brothy soup. Better the next day and vegan, too. Some nori(dried seaweed) would be excellent in this!
Butternut Squash Soup
Well, autumn is among us and we are being bombarded with gourds. The good thing about them is that they keep for a long time and you don’t have to know what you’re going to do with them immediately. So, after I let this marinate on top of the fridge for a week, I came up with this.
Winter Celery Soup
In this chilly weather, it's time for some celery! Even if it only gets cold for 3-4 days in Bangkok 🤣🤣

Amanda Hesser adapted this recipe from acclaimed chef Thomas Keller. It should be approached as a labor of love because it takes many steps and several hours, but the result is outstanding.#GlobalApron
