Preparation steps

1.

Rinse, quarter and core the quince. Dice into bite-sized pieces. Peel the potatoes, celery root, onion and garlic, and chop. Heat the butter in a skillet and cook the onion and garlic until translucent. Add the quince, potatoes and celery. Pour in the broth to cover and allow to simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.

2.

Puree the soup (if desired, put the mixture through a strainer or sieve). If the mixture is too thin, put the soup back on the heat to reduce. If the soup is too thick, add extra broth. Stir in the parsley and season with salt, lemon juice, sugar and pepper.

3.

Brown the bacon in a skillet until brown and crispy. Drain on a paper towel.

4.

To serve, divide the soup between bowls and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Garnish with crumbled bacon and parsley.
