Yves Camdeborde's recipe

To make this soup, start by cutting the celeriac into pieces.

In a pot of boiling water, cook the celery and a handful of rice.

When the celery is cooked, add the chestnuts in jars.

Return to the boil before mixing everything.

Finally, add hazelnut oil and some roasted hazelnuts.
