INSTRUCTIONS
The taste of this soup is somewhere in between the colonies and American Upper Yuppie. You decide. I like it! Heat a 4-quart pot and add the oil. Saut the garlic, celery, and onion until the onion is clear. Add the flour, cooking and stirring over medium heat for a few minutes to form a roux. Add the stock and stir with a wire whip until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the remaining ingredients except the cream, salt, pepper, and scallops. Simmer, covered, for 1/2 hour, stirring often. Add the cream and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the scallops and heat just a few minutes. Do not overcook the scallops. Serve immediately. NOTE: A very small amount of freshly grated ginger will bring some additional Yuppie flavor to this dish. From <The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American>.
