CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP



Cream of Broccoli Soup image

This soup is super creamy in texture, but it contains very little actual cream. The butter and flour mixture -- what's called a roux -- gives it body and silkiness.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, diced small
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 pound broccoli, cut into florets, stems peeled and chopped
1/4 cup heavy cream
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, melt butter over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 minutes.
  • Add flour and cook, stirring, until combined, 1 minute.
  • Whisking constantly, add broth and 1 cup water and bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, 10 minutes.
  • Add broccoli and bring to a simmer. Cook until broccoli is very tender, 20 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture to a large bowl. In batches, fill a blender halfway with mixture and puree until smooth; to allow heat to escape, remove cap from hole in lid, cover lid with a dish towel, and hold down firmly while blending. Return soup to pot as pureed.
  • Add cream and heat over medium until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper. Thin with broth or water, if desired.

This is a hearty, filling, and delicious soup that won't blow your calorie budget.

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.)

Provided by Eric Kim

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.
