The addition of pear and Stilton to this soup was inspired by enjoying these flavours together in a salad. The pear adds a sweet note, the Stilton a saltiness. Both emphasise the natural soft, nutty notes of the celeriac. A little splash of cream finishes this soup off perfectly. Luckily the supper club guests agreed!
