Toast the caraway seeds (see Page 26). Add the potatoes to the boiling broth, along with the 1/4 cup sherry, celery seed, thyme, and caraway seeds.

Gently reheat until it comes to a simmer, then stir in the milk. In a skillet, heat the olive oil and add the mushrooms, tarragon, and 1 tablespoon sherry. Saute until tender, about 3 minutes.
