Celeriac and blue cheese Soup

Starter Serves 4 50 min

Celeriac's peppery intensity goes very well with tangy blue cheese in this quick, warming soup. For a slightly different taste add cider and/or peeled and chopped apples early on. This will work with most blue cheeses – try leftover Christmas Stilton, Gorgonzola or Roquefort.
