PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Score chestnuts on their rounded

them. Place chestnuts on baking sheet. Bake until
skins have opened and meat is tender, about 20
minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel and dice
them into small pieces. Set aside. Rinse lentils and
combine them in soup pot with the water. Bring to
boil. Cook a few minutes at gentle boil, removing foam
that forms on surface. Add carrot, celery, onion,
garlic, bay leaf, salt and parsley. Lower heat and
simmer until lentils are tender, about 35 minutes.
When done, remove parsley sprigs and bay leaf. Correct
seasoning and add salt, if necessary. Puree half the
lentils until smooth, then recombine them with the
rest. FINISHING THE SOUP: In pan large enough to hold
soup, warm olive oil, then add roasted chestnuts and
herbs. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for
several minutes. Add wine and tomato paste. Stir to
dissolve tomato paste and cook a few minutes to reduce
wine. Stir in lentil mixture and simmer gently 20
minutes. If soup is too thick, thin it with a little
water, stock or cream until of right consistency.
Taste for salt and season with pepper. Serve with
spoonful of olive oil swirled into each bowl. Sprinkle
with parsley and croutons, if desired. —
