CURTIS BROCCOLI SOUP
Steps:
- In a large soup pot, heat the oil and saute the onion until softened. Add the broccoli and saute for one minute. Add the stock and salt and cook covered until broccoli is tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Puree in a blender until smooth, thin with heated milk.
- TIP:
- LOOKS LIKE BROCCOLI.... BROCCOLI RABE
- Trim off the bottom, tough stems of the broccoli rabe, wash well. Slice stems into 1/2-inch pieces and saute with whole peeled garlic cloves in olive oil. After 5 minutes add florets, saute until slightly tender, add a pinch of Italian red pepper and serve over pasta

Steps:
- Mix cider, chicken broth, milk and garlic in a LARGE POT (I used a 10 qt pot) and slowly bring to a simmer. Put onions, mushrooms, green onion and jalapeno into the pot. Simmer about 10 minutes so flavors have time to blend.
- While you're simmering, get a pan big enough to hold all your broccoli. Put water in it and bring it to a boil. Once you have a good boil going, put all the broccoli in and cook for 2 minutes. DO NOT OVER COOK! Broccoli will go grey really fast, you're just looking to get a bright green, which should happen almost instantly. If it's not all bright green, don't fret, it will be ok.
- In a large coffee mug or bowl, mix the cornstarch and the water until the cornstarch is completely dissolved. I like to use a coffee mug and a fork, but whatever works is okee dokee.
- Once your soup has simmered a bit, go ahead and add the cornstarch and bring it to a full boil while stirring. This will make it loads easier to thicken than if you wait until later. :) Stir until you've reached something just shy of your desired consistency (the cheese will add some thickening power, too). Drop the heat back to a slow simmer and add the broccoli.
- With the lowest heat you can (and the soup still simmers, that is!), add the cheese, slowly, no more than a handful at a time and stir until it melts. Word has it that a figure 8 is the best way to stir in cheese, but I didn't try it when I made this soup, so I don't know. Be patient and work in the cheese until there isn't anymore.
- With your cheese melted, season to taste. You'll probably want some black pepper and salt, paprika is good, mustard would be nice with this, too. I leave that up to you.
- If/when rewarming, make sure you do it on the stovetop over med-low heat. Cornstarch thickened anything doesn't like to reheat in the microwave very well. I'm not really sure why, but that's the way it is. :).

Tips:
- For a creamy and smooth soup, use a high-powered blender or food processor to blend the soup until it is completely smooth.
- If you don't have a high-powered blender or food processor, you can use a regular blender or food processor, but you may need to blend the soup in batches.
- To make the soup even more flavorful, you can add a teaspoon of minced garlic or onion to the soup before blending.
- If you want a thicker soup, you can add a tablespoon or two of cornstarch or flour to the soup before blending.
- To make the soup more cheesy, you can add an extra cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the soup before blending.
- For a healthier soup, you can use low-fat or non-fat milk and cheese.
- You can also add other vegetables to the soup, such as carrots, celery, or spinach.

This broccoli cheddar soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your soup thick or thin, cheesy or not, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a warm and satisfying meal, give this broccoli cheddar soup a try.
