Method
In a saucepan, combine the chopped onion, celery, and 1/2 cup of the chicken broth. Simmer over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the dry milk powder, flour, black pepper, and the remaining 1 cup of cold chicken broth until completely smooth.

Pour the milk mixture into the saucepan with the vegetables. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the soup thickens and is heated through.
