• 1 onion, chopped (note: don’t cut around Sarek, the poor dear worries about my sensitive human eyes or something equally illogical)
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 2 pounds (900 grams) plomeek root, scalded with skins removed (note: if no plomeek root is available, use equal parts potatoes and beets)
• 2 stalks celery, chopped (note: don’t tell Spock I use celery, he’ll insist that he can taste the stringy bits, even if I remove them)
• 4 cups (960 grams) vegetable broth

Cook onions in oil until slightly translucent, about five minutes (note: I know it’s not traditional but the traditional soup is bland. Add garlic, about 2 cloves).

Add vegetable broth, heat until boiling.

Add celery and plomeek root, boil until the plomeek root is soft, about 30 minutes.

Blend until smooth.

Serve (note: add sour cream. dill. salt. something)
