Many people who loathe turnips are surprised to learn of their presence after enjoying a bowl of this soup. A wonderful soup to make in the fall as gardens are being harvested. Bring 4 cups water or stock to a boil in a 4 qt soup pot. Add squash, turnip, cauliflower, cabbage, and celery. Cook on medium heat covered until tender (approximately 30 minutes). Turn off heat. In a 1 qt saucepan, melt butter. Add flour, garlic, and ginger. Cook 5 minutes on low heat until garlic is lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Turn off heat, add cream, and stir well with a whisk. Add 1 cup milk to cream mixture, then add cream mixture to soup. Add parsley, salt, pepper, and remaining 1 cup milk to soup. Simmer 15 minutes more uncovered and serve. Recipe by Horn of the Moon Cookbook by Ginny Callan MMMMM .
