How to Make the Best Cream of Broccoli Soup | Allrecipes.com

Chop one medium onion and one stalk of celery.

Melt 2 tsp of butter in a medium-sized stock pot.

Sauté the onion and celery in the butter until they're tender.

Add in 8 cups of broccoli florets and 3 cups of chicken broth.

Simmer the soup covered for 10 minutes.

Use a blender or an immersion blender to puree the soup.

If using a blender, fill the pitcher no more than halfway each time to avoid splashing.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt 3 tbsp of butter.

Whisk in 3 tbsp of all-purpose flour and 2 cups of milk.

Stir this mixture until it's thick and bubbly, then stir it into the soup.

Season the soup with pepper to taste and serve immediately with your favorite bread or crackers.
