    Source of Recipe


    LOL in the kitchen

    List of Ingredients




    3 T unsalted butter
    1 c onion OR leeks - chopped
    1/2 c celery - chopped
    4 c broccoli florets - coarsely chopped
    1/3 c all-purpose flour
    4 c vegetable stock
    2 c milk
    2 c grated cheddar cheese
    1 T dijon mustard
    1/4 t black pepper
    salt - to taste
    Tabasco sauce - to taste
    Worcestershire sauce - to taste

    Recipe



    In a soup pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add the onions
    or leeks, celery, and broccoli. Cook stirring until tender, about
    5 minutes. Sprinkle flour over the top. Stir well to blend,
    increase the heat to medium, and cook, stirring constantly for 5
    minutes. (Make sure not to burn the flour.) Gradually add stock
    and milk, and stir until smooth .Cook until the vegetables are
    tender, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a food processor and
    puree until smooth. Return the soup to the pot and return to a
    low simmer. Stir in the cheese in batches, blending well after
    each addition. Be careful not to boil this soup. If the soup is
    too hot the cheese will break down. Season with Dijon mustard,
    salt and pepper, and Tabasco and/or Worcestershire to taste.
    Garnish with grated cheddar cheese. Makes about 6 cups.
