2 stalks celery, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups water

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 pound cod fillets, cut into chunks

Directions

1

Melt butter in a 5-quart saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, celery, and garlic in melted butter until onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir flour into the vegetable mixture until the vegetables are evenly coated. Pour clam juice and water into the saucepan; whisk until smooth. Add potatoes, bay leaf, and thyme to the mixture. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
3

Gently stir cod into the soup. Place a cover on the saucepan and cook until the cod is flaky, about 8 minutes.

Pour milk into the soup; stir. Simmer soup until hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove bay leaf to serve.
