very soft, about 25 minutes. Discard bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Add
spinach to soup and cook until just wilted, stirring occasionally,
about 2 minutes.

Place soup in batches in processor. Return soup to pot. Add cream and
remaining 2 cups stock and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Season with salt and white pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.
Cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before continuing.)

Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle with croutons and serve.

"The Irish excel with root vegetables, and every home garden seems to
boast lush rows of celeriac, parsnips, turnips, leeks, rutabagas, and
potatoes. This savory bisque is a subtle and suave use of the humble
and often ignored celery root. Along with glasses of sherry, it makes
a great beginning to an elegant celebration of St. Patrick. Spinach
leaves add pretty green color to the bisque."

From Bon Appetit, March 1991

Food Tips of the Week

Losing weight

Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst. At times when going through a hectic day, you imagine you feel hunger but if truth be told you just need a restorative tumbler of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
The argument against low carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe for you?
Remember, one point that is frequently overlooked, it is extremely hard (although certainly not impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carb diet.
Many scientific studies over the last few years have proved that exessive consumption of animal fat can lead to higher probability of cancer, coronary problems and other serious illnesses.
Healthy foods with carotenes
(includes carrots, collard greens and winter squash)
These orange and green vegetables and fruits have high levels of the carotenoids believed play a key role in cancer prevention, spefically cancer of the esophagus. Many are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss program.
