Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 1 onion(s)
  • ½ turnip(s)
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1 liter of broth
  • Salt
  • Pepper, white
  • Nutmeg, fresh
  • 250 ml sweet cream
  • Parsley
  • 4 tbsp cheese, grated

Instructions

Working time approx. 45 minutes; Total time approx. 45 minutes

Sauté the diced vegetables in a large pot with butter until golden. Dust with flour and make a roux. Then pour in the cold stock and stir until smooth. Return to the heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 25 minutes. Season to taste. Add sweet cream to the hot soup (more to taste). My version of the soup is to puree it with a hand blender until creamy, then stir in the cheese and let it melt into the still-hot soup. I sprinkle the parsley on top; you can also stir it in, but I think one bunch is too much. Enjoy! You should try again to convince your grandparents to try swede again, because this soup is perfect for that.
