CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP



Creamy Broccoli Soup image

This is one of the best formulas for a creamy, savory broccoli soup - and it doesn't include any cream. Borrowing from the concept of using coconut water to provide the kind of richness that is reminiscent of bone broth in Yi Jun Loh's ingeniously vegan Malaysian ABC soup, this simple green elixir starts with a base of umami-loaded vegetables seared in olive oil then braised in coconut water. With silken tofu providing creaminess, this verdant, vegetable-powered soup can be pleasurably contrasted, in flavor and in temperature, with an optional dollop of sweet, cool ricotta. (If you're keeping this vegan, you'll still have plenty of creamy richness even if you leave the ricotta out.)

Categories     dinner, lunch, weeknight, soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds broccoli
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
1 medium carrot, coarsely chopped
1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped
1 small sweet potato (preferably white-fleshed), coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 quart unsweetened coconut water, plus more if desired
1 (16-ounce) container silken tofu, drained
Ricotta, for serving (optional)
Finely chopped parsley, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut off the broccoli stems, then cut the stems into 1-inch-thick slices. Separate the florets into small pieces. Reserve the stems and florets separately.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high and add the olive oil. Stir in the onion, carrot, tomato, sweet potato and the broccoli stems, spread in an even layer and season generously with salt and pepper. Let the vegetables on the bottom sear without stirring until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add the garlic powder and stir with a wooden spoon to hydrate the spice in the fat and continue cooking for another minute or so. The tomato will start to break down and get jammy.
  • Add the coconut water, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to keep the soup at a gentle boil and continue cooking until all of the vegetables are mostly softened and the stock is imbued with savory flavor, about 10 minutes. For a creamier texture, remove the broccoli stems to snack on or discard; for more broccoli flavor (and roughage), leave the stems in.
  • Stir in the broccoli florets and tofu, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover and cook until a paring knife easily cuts the stem part of a broccoli floret, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Carefully ladle the contents of the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, then add more coconut water or water to thin out the soup to your desired thickness.
  • Serve hot in shallow bowls, each serving dolloped with a spoonful of fridge-cold ricotta, if using, and lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs, if desired.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP



Creamy Broccoli Soup image

Instead of cream, this creamy broccoli soup gets its texture from avocado, and has added nutrients from three cups of baby spinach and one head of broccoli.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon coconut or extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
4 cups Cleansing Broth
1 head broccoli, trimmed and chopped (6 cups)
3 cups baby spinach
1 avocado, chopped, plus more for garnish
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Add broccoli and cook, covered, until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, stir in spinach, and let cool slightly.
  • Transfer soup to blend and puree with avocado. Adjust seasoning. Garnish with avocado and a drizzle of olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellow or brown spots, as this indicates it is past its prime.
  • Wash the broccoli thoroughly: Before using, rinse the broccoli under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Cut the broccoli into small florets: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Add some seasonings: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all classic seasonings that can be added to broccoli soup. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
  • Garnish the soup: Before serving, garnish the soup with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley, chives, or croutons.

Conclusion:

Creamless broccoli soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is made with simple ingredients and can be easily customized to your liking. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying soup, give creamless broccoli soup a try.
