- Slice the bacon into thin strips and put into the bottom of a large soup pot over medium high heat until it becomes golden brown and crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and place on a paper towel. Leave the residual fat from the bacon in the soup pot.
- Add the butter and stir until melted. Place the onions, celery, and carrots into the pot. Cook the vegetables until they become caramelized- approximately 5 minutes.
- Add the flour, continuing to stir the mixture for 3-4 minutes.
- Place the milk, cream, and chicken stock into the pot and continue to stir until the soup begins to thicken, approximately 5-6 minutes.
- Add the cheddar cheese, and stir for two minutes.
- Place an immersion blender in the soup and mix until smooth. If you donât have an immersion blender, use a standard blender- make sure the lid is on secure, and donât forget the fluid is hot.
- Add the chopped bacon, grated nutmeg, Italian parsley, fresh cracked black pepper, and salt. Give the soup a taste and adjust for seasoning.
- Garnish with chopped bacon, cheddar, seasoned croutons, chives, and a small amount of parsley.
