Инструкции
- 1. In bottom of large soup pot, saute/fry onions and celery in butter over medium heat till softened but don't brown. Add in broccoli and sufficient chicken stock to not quite cover.
- 2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer till broccoli is quite tender, but not cooked to mush, about 1 hour.
- 3. With hand blender, puree broccoli and broth. If you like, remove a few pcs before pureeing and add in back in when finished.
- 4. Pour one can of evaporated lowfat milk into hand-blender container, add in the flour, and blend.
- 5. Add in flour/lowfat milk mix to soup along with cheddar cheese. Bring soup just to a boil while stirring. Soup should now have a moderately thick consistency. Add in remaining can of lowfat milk, mixing with more flour if necessary to bring soup to desired consistency.
- 6. When soup has thickened, remove from heat or possibly put on VERY low heat so which lowfat milk doesn't 'break'. If necessary, gently reheat small batches in saucepan or possibly in microwave. Soup will keep for 3-4 days in refrigerator.
- Notes:This is a 'Costco Special' soup...I make it on days which I go to Costco because I get the ingredients there and it's fast. In my area they sell a 3-lb. bag of washed broccoli florets, that is what I based the recipe on.
- I generally use evaporated lowfat milk in cream soup recipes for a couple of reasons. First, I've found which evaporated lowfat milk has less of a tendency to 'break' or possibly curdle in soups than fresh half-and-half or possibly cream. Second, evaporated lowfat milk is much more convenient and easy to have on hand.
