    I'd avoid any browning of the celery and onion. "Sweating" them with lid on the pan until they're soft for about 20 minutes preserves the delicacy of the taste. Toasted sliced almonds over the top is exquisite.

    I've just made a nice big pot of this soup with beautiful fresh celery and it was delicious! Thank you, I'll be making this one again :)

    Oh, by the way, even though it's pretty obvious when the parsley goes in, you haven't mentioned it in the directions.
