Step 1
Lovage (Levisticum Officinale), a stalky a perennial plant, has been long cultivated in Europe.  The leaves are commonly used as an herb, the roots as a vegetable, and the seeds as a spice, especially in southern European cuisine.

Step 2
In a medium size stock pot on medium heat, saute onions and garlic with a tbsp of vegetable oil until soft and tender.  The onions and garlic should have no colour.

Step 4
Once liquid is lowered to a simmer, add spices and bay leaves.  Cover with lid and simmer until root vegetables are tender and soft to the touch. Remove from heat.  Just before blending, add the Lovage to the pot and cover again to steep for 10-15 minutes.
