Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 1/2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, chopped
1/2 cup peeled and coarsely chopped celery root
1 1/2 cups bottled or vacuum-packed steamed chestnuts (about 10 oz.)
1/2 tsp minced fresh thyme
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock, homemade or canned reduced-sodium
about 1 tsp. kosher or sea salt
about 1/4 tsp. pepper
6 tbsp heavy cream, divided
thinly sliced chives , plus chive-blossom petals if you have them, for garnish

Directions:

Warm butter and oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, 10 minutes. Add celery root, chestnuts, thyme, and stock. Bring to a simmer, then cover partially and simmer gently until celery root is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
Purée soup in a blender in batches. Stir in 1 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and 2 tbsp. cream.
Whisk remaining cream into soft peaks. Season soup with salt and pepper. Serve 1/4-cup portions in espresso cups or teacups, topped with cream and chives.
