Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 medium chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 1/2 cups whole milk
4 cups chicken stock
1 lb. (16 oz.) fresh or frozen broccoli florets
1 cup grated carrot
Kosher salt and freshly grated pepper, to taste
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1- 1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese (depending on how cheesy you want it)
1/2 medium chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 1/2 cups whole milk
4 cups chicken stock
1 lb. (16 oz.) fresh or frozen broccoli florets
1 cup grated carrot
Kosher salt and freshly grated pepper, to taste
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1- 1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese (depending on how cheesy you want it)
Directions:
Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large pot over medium-high heat, and sauté onion until soft, about 3 minutes. Add 1/4 cup butter and flour, whisking for 3-5 minutes to create a roux. Whisk while adding the milk and chicken stock. Simmer for 20 minutes.
Stir in the broccoli florets and grated carrot. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg. Simmer over low heat for 30-35 minutes.
Remove soup from heat and pulse with an immersion blender until smooth. Or, puree the soup in batches in a food processor until smooth, adding mixture back to the pot.
Return pot to low heat and stir in cheddar cheese. Simmer for 10 minutes, and serve.
