Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp butter
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 celery stalk, diced
2 (7.4-oz) jars whole roasted chestnuts, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup marsala
1 (32-oz) container chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4 to 1/2 tsp freshly ground white pepper
1/8 tsp freshly grated nutmeg

Directions:

Melt butter in a large saucepan; add onion and celery, and sauté 4 to 6 minutes or until tender. Add chestnuts, and sauté another 2 minutes. Add Marsala, and scrape pan to deglaze. Add chicken broth and next 3 ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook, uncovered, 20 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes.
Process soup in a blender, in batches, until smooth. Return to saucepan, stir in nutmeg, and bring to a simmer. While soup reheats, fill a soup tureen with boiling water, and let warm for several minutes; drain tureen. Transfer hot soup to warmed tureen, and serve.
*For testing purposes, we used Minerve brand whole roasted chestnuts.
