What is Celery Soup?
Celery Soup is the English name on this page for the Turkish kereviz çorbası, which is often made with celeriac (celery root), rather than only celery stalks. The root is simmered with onion and sometimes potato, then blended; recipes may use vegetable or meat stock, with milk or cream added for a softer finish. Fresh celery leaves make a common garnish.
Its flavour is gently sweet and herbal, with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. In Turkey it is often served as a first course at dinner, especially in cooler weather. It is a light, vegetable-forward soup, with about 28 calories per 100 g. For a simple meal, pair it with crusty bread; use stock instead of cream if you prefer a lighter bowl.

Frequently Asked Questions About Celery Soup
How do you make celery soup from scratch?
Celery soup is made by simmering chopped celery with onion in stock until tender, then blending it to the texture you like. Add potato for body or finish with milk, cream, or a squeeze of lemon.
Can you use celery leaves in celery soup?
Yes, celery leaves can go into celery soup, especially the tender inner leaves. They add a fresh, slightly herbal flavor; save a few to scatter on top, but use tougher outer leaves sparingly because they can taste stronger.
Does celery soup need cream?
No, celery soup does not need cream. Blended celery and potato can make it smooth without dairy; alternatively, stir in cream, milk, or a plant-based alternative near the end for a richer finish.
Why does my celery soup taste bitter?
Celery soup can taste bitter if the celery is old, the outer stalks or leaves are especially strong, or it has been browned too much. Use fresh celery, trim tough parts, and balance the flavor with onion, stock, or a little lemon.
Can you freeze celery soup?
Yes, celery soup freezes well, though soups containing cream may separate or turn grainy after thawing. Freeze it before adding dairy when possible, then thaw gently, reheat, and stir in the cream just before serving.
How long does celery soup last in the fridge?
Celery soup keeps for about 3–4 days in the refrigerator when stored in a covered container. Refrigerate it promptly after cooking, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat until it is steaming hot.
What goes well with celery soup?
Celery soup pairs well with crusty bread, grilled cheese, or a crisp salad. For a more filling meal, serve it alongside a savory tart or a sandwich rather than adding a heavy side to an already creamy soup.
Can celery soup be made without potatoes?
Yes, celery soup can be made without potatoes. Blend the cooked celery thoroughly, or thicken the soup with a small amount of flour or another cooked vegetable; add stock gradually to avoid making it too thin.
What is the difference between celery soup and cream of celery soup?
Celery soup is a broad term for soup made with celery, while cream of celery soup is typically blended and enriched with cream or milk. Homemade versions vary, so a celery soup can be creamy without being a traditional cream soup.
Is celery soup filling enough for a meal?
Celery soup can be a light meal, but a basic version may not keep you full for long. Serve it with beans, lentils, whole-grain bread, or a protein-rich side to make lunch or dinner more substantial.
