Add the onion and celery; cook until wilted, stirring occasionally, 10-12 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 2 minutes more. Add the reserved mushrooms and cook uncovered, stirring frequently, for 15 minutes. Season with the thyme, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Puree the soup in batches in a food processor until smooth, adding the cream gradually through the feed tube. Return the soup to the pot and adjust the seasonings to taste. Before serving, heat the soup through over very low heat (do not boil). Garnish with the chives and serve piping hot.
