Best Cream Of Broccoli Soup

2024-03-20 By : Admin
This broccoli soup recipe is thick and flavorful. It is simple, delicious, and quick to make. Enjoy (I know you will).

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons butter, divided

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 stalk celery, chopped

  • 3 cups chicken broth

  • 8 cups broccoli florets

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 2 cups milk

  • ground black pepper to taste

Directions

    1. Gather all ingredients.
    2. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat. Saute onion and celery until tender.
    3. Add broccoli and broth, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
    4. Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use an immersion blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
    5. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium to medium-low heat; stir in flour and add milk. Stir until thick and bubbly, and add to soup. Season with pepper and serve.
