3 tablespoons butter

2 stalks celery -- grated

1 onion -- grated

1 tablespoon flour

5 cups stock

1 cup chunk-style peanut butter

3/4 cup milk

3/4 heavy cream

hot pepper sauce -- to taste

1/2 cup chopped roasted peanuts

 

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the grated celery and

onion and cook them until they are translucent. Add the

flour and stir until the mixture becomes a smooth paste. Cook the paste for 2 to

smooth.

 

Raise the heat slightly, and bring the soup to a boil, and add the peanut

butter, stirring to make sure that it is well mixed in.

Lower the heat and allow the soup to simmer for 15 minutes. Finally add the

milk, cream, hot pepper sauce, salt, and pepper, and

bring the soup to the boil again. Correct the seasonings and serve hot,

garnishing each serving with a few roasted peanuts.
