Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Kohlrabi Soup.
Step 1
To start your delicious kohlrabi soup, grab a large pot and warm up some olive oil over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the chopped onion and sauté it until it turns soft and translucent, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 3
Next, add the chopped garlic and celery to the mix, letting them cook for another 2 minutes until their delightful aromas fill your kitchen.
Step 4
Now it’s time to introduce the star of the show: the cubed kohlrabi.
Step 5
Add it along with a bay leaf, and let everything cook together for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Step 6
Gradually pour in the water and milk, stirring gently to blend all the ingredients.
Step 7
If you’re using chicken bouillon granules, sprinkle them in now for an extra layer of flavor.
Step 8
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring frequently to keep the milk from frothing too much.
Step 9
Once it reaches a boil, lower the heat and partially cover the pot, allowing the soup to simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the kohlrabi is tender and soft.
Step 10
After simmering, remove the pot from the heat and take out the bay leaf—your kitchen should smell amazing by now! For the next step, carefully fill a blender halfway with the soup.
Step 11
To avoid any splashes, cover the lid with a potholder and pulse a few times before blending until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 12
Pour the blended soup back into the pot and repeat this process with the remaining soup until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 13
Now, return the pot to the stove and heat the soup until it’s piping hot.
Step 14
Before serving, taste and adjust the seasoning with a little extra salt and pepper if needed.
Step 15
Enjoy your comforting bowl of kohlrabi soup, perfect for warming up on a chilly day!.
