For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of sharp Cheddar and Gruyere cheese. If you prefer a thinner soup, add more milk until you reach your desired consistency. A pinch of nutmeg adds a subtle warmth to the soup. This soup freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container and freezing for up to 2 months.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
Prepare the Broccoli: Place a steamer insert into a medium saucepan and fill with water, ensuring the water level is just below the bottom of the insert. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Add the broccoli florets, cover the pot tightly, and steam until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork. (8-10 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Slightly Cool: Transfer the steamed broccoli to a blender or food processor. Allow it to cool slightly to prevent splattering. (5 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Blend to Perfection: Add the milk, shredded Cheddar cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese to the blender with the broccoli. Secure the lid tightly. Start with a few quick pulses to break down the broccoli, then blend continuously until the soup is smooth and creamy. Alternatively, use an immersion blender directly in the saucepan or a separate bowl for a chunkier texture.

Step
2 mins
Season and Serve: Taste the soup and season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavors. Serve immediately and garnish with additional shredded cheese or a swirl of cream, if desired.
