TESTED with better than bouillon: half mushroom and have vegetable soup
base. Tested with a 12-oz celeriac. Plan to lose about 15% of the root
during peeling. Puree soup with burst of celery flavors. The apples are not
distinctive; instead they make the soup bright and crisp. Measures are not
precise. Use what is on hand and add broth to thin soup to the consistency
of an applesauce. Pat H
