Instructions:
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, carrot, and leek. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the cooked chestnuts, bay leaf, and thyme to the pot. Stir well to combine with the vegetables.
- Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes until the chestnuts are tender.
- Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprig. Use an immersion blender or a regular blender to puree the soup until it's smooth and creamy.
- Return the soup to the pot over low heat. Stir in the heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Serve the chestnut soup hot, garnished with fresh chives or parsley for a touch of color and freshness. Enjoy your delicious and comforting French chestnut soup!
