 Directions

The taste of this soup is somewhere in between the colonies and American
Upper Yuppie. You decide. I like it!

Heat a 4-quart pot and add the oil. Saut”š the garlic, celery, and onion
until the onion is clear. Add the flour, cooking and stirring over medium
heat for a few minutes to form a roux. Add the stock and stir with a wire
whip until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the remaining ingredients
except the cream, salt, pepper, and scallops. Simmer, covered, for 1/2
hour, stirring often. Add the cream and season to taste with salt and
pepper. Add the scallops and heat just a few minutes. Do not overcook the
scallops. Serve immediately.

NOTE: A very small amount of freshly grated ginger will bring some
additional Yuppie flavor to this dish.
