4 heads broccoli, cut into 1-inch pieces
Olive oil, for drizzling
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter
1 whole onion, diced
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk

Pinch nutmeg
3 cups grated cheese (mild Cheddar, sharp Cheddar, Jack, etc.), plus more for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove 2 cups of the broccoli florets, cut in half, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet cut-side down and bake until the florets begin to crisp and turn slightly brown.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 medium onion, chopped fine
6 tablespoons margarine
8 tablespoons flour
4 cups 2% low-fat milk (one quart)
1 bunch broccoli, stems and leaves removed
1 cup chicken broth or 1 cup water
8 slices American cheese
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, cook the onions in the margarine until soft.
  • Stir in the flour and cook (but do not brown) for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
  • Whisk in the milk, reduce heat and stir occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, chop the broccoli florets into small pieces, place in a small saucepan with the broth (or water) and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until tender (about 6-8 minutes).
  • As the milk mixture thickens, stir in the slices of American cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • When the broccoli is tender, add it (including the cooking liquid) to the thickened cheese mixture. Stir well to combine and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Fresh is best: Use fresh broccoli for the best flavor and texture. If you only have frozen broccoli on hand, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked broccoli will lose its鮮艳的绿色color and flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the soup. Use a sharp cheddar cheese for a浓郁flavor, or a milder cheese like Monterey Jack for a more subtle flavor.
  • Season to taste: Don't be afraid to add more salt, pepper, or other seasonings to taste. The soup should be flavorful, but not too salty.
  • Garnish with your favorites: A sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley, chives, or bacon bits adds a nice finishing touch to the soup.

Conclusion:

Creamy Broccoli Soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal.
