Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['low_carb'], recipe: peel, cube, boil, drain and "mush" potatoes to the consistency you like (i like them lumpy, but my kids like smaller pieces). in separate pan, melt butter, add flour and cook while stirring for about a minute or so. add half the milk and stir until lumps are out of flour mixture. add remaining milk and on med-high heat, heat to a boil. stir almost constantly or it will scorch. after boiling, turn heat off and add remaining ingredients.

Target recipe: combine the stock, sweet potatoes, celery, onion, bay leaf, and tarragon in a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat. reduce the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, 20 to 30 minutes. discard the bay leaf, puree the soup in batches in an electric blender or food processor, and return to the pot. add the half-and-half, salt, and pepper and bring to a simmer. garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped herbs if desired. don't forget the freshly ground black pepper, and some goat cheese on top might also be a nice contrast to the sweetness of the sweet potatoes. enjoy!
