Celery Root Soup with Lemony Crab. I made this back in May and it was so good that I had to do it again. From Food & Wine Magazine – April 2025.

What a wonderful dish, Kevin! Thank you for sharing it with us it looks spectacular. The combination of celery root and lemon crab sounds so fresh and beautifully thought out. I also love how you took care with the presentation; those threads add such a lovely pop of color.
A technical question: did you finish the soup base by emulsifying it with any kind of fat, or just with cream to achieve that velvety texture? It looks incredibly smooth. Thanks again for sharing it with us! 🙌🏻1-

@kevin-godbee Crème fraîche definitely adds that silky texture and a touch of acidity that balances the flavors beautifully. Great choice! I loved learning that detail.

Okaaay 😍 this looks insanely good. That creamy texture with the bright crab on top is just 🔥 I want all the secrets of this recipe—what gave it that depth? Was it the celery root base or something sneaky in the seasoning? Tell us everything, chef! 👀

@kevin-godbee Ah, that explains the silkiness! The crème fraîche must bring that perfect tangy richness to balance the sweetness of the crab and the earthiness of the celery root. 🥄✨. Would love to see what’s next in your soup series—your plating and flavor balance are spot on! 👏
