• 2 bay leaves

• 5-6 sprigs of thyme

• 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt

Method

Prep ingredients, peel and cube the celery root, wash and chop the leeks. Melt butter in a pot over medium heat, then add celery root, garlic, leeks, cayenne, salt, pepper, bay leaves, thyme. Sauté until fragrant for a couple minutes. Add broth, cover and simmer until the celery root is fork tender. Remove thyme stems, and bay leaves. Blend until smooth, stir in yogurt and lemon juice. Taste to adjust seasonings! Ladle into a bowl, swirl in extra yogurt and sprinkle thyme on top if you feel like it. Serve with crusty bread!
