Broccoli Soup Recipe

This soup too is easy. And it is almost exactly like the Cauliflower Soup Recipe. The only difference is you need to use 3/4's broccoli and 1/4 cauliflower.

Step 1. Dice some onions and sauté.
Step 2. Cut the flowers only from the cauliflower and broccoli. Use 3/4s portion of broccoli and 1/4 portion of cauliflower.
Step 3. Barely cover the onion and the cauliflower with vegetable stock. Add garlic to taste. This last step is optional. If you use a prepared vegetable stock or broth, you may not need to add salt. If you have fresh stock, then salt to taste.
Step 4. Cook for 1 hour at a simmer, no longer.
Step 5. Blend in a blender until smooth. This takes a long time. I blend for about 10-15 minutes. I like to add some white pepper corns. I add 5-10 for about 3 gallons. You can add 1 or 2 and taste. You can always add more but you can't take away.

Then keep t he soup warm until you are ready to serve. And remember, the better your stock, the better the soup. I serve with a paprika garnish. I use sweet smoked paprika. I already published this soup recipe.
