Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Celery root is my new favorite ingredient. It gives the soup a wonderful flavor. I didn't use parsnip or spinach because I didn't have on hand and it was wonderful.
