Ingredients
- 180 g Potatoes, floury
- 30 g Carrot
- 20 g Parsley root (or parsnip)
- 20 g Celeriac
- 40 g Onion
- 5 g Dried mushrooms (porcini)
- 12 g Butter
- 8 g Flour, all-purpose
- 3 g Garlic
- 0.5 g Marjoram, dried
- 0.3 g Caraway seeds
- 0.1 g Bay leaf
- 0.2 g Allspice
- 0.1 g Black pepper
- 400 g Water
- 0.5 g Salt
Method
- Rinse the dried mushrooms, cover them with a little hot water and leave them to soak for 20 minutes.
- Peel and dice the potatoes, carrot, parsley root and celeriac. Put them in a pot with the water, the caraway, bay leaf, allspice and salt, bring to the boil and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Chop the mushrooms and add them with their soaking water, poured off carefully so any grit stays behind. Simmer for 10 minutes more, until the vegetables are tender.
- Meanwhile melt the butter in a small pan, fry the chopped onion for 5 minutes until golden, then stir in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes until it is light brown and smells nutty. Whisk in a ladle of the soup until smooth.
- Stir this into the soup and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until slightly thickened; some of the potato breaks up and thickens it too.
- Add the crushed garlic, the marjoram rubbed between your palms and the pepper, simmer for 1-2 minutes, then take the pot off the heat and leave it for 5 minutes before serving.
