Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 4 tablespoons sweet butter
  • 1 large white onion, chopped
  • 1 large celery stalk, chopped
  • 1 medium russet potato, peeled and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoons ground white pepper
  • 300 g fresh chestnuts
  • 750 ml chicken broth

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 400ºF. Cut an X on the flat side of each chestnut and spread in a single layer in a shallow pan. Roast until tender — about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and, using a small knife, remove both the shells and the skins. Set aside
  • 2
    In a sauce pan over medium high heat, melt the butter. Add onions and celery and sauté until golden, about 5 minutes.
  • 3
    Add the chestnuts, potato, broth, cream, salt and pepper. Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until the soup thickens slightly, about an hour.
  • 4
    Transfer soup to a blender and purée until smooth and creamy, about a minute.
  • 5
    Return soup to the sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Adjust seasoning and serve immediately.
  • Ready !
