Ultimate Cream Of Broccoli Soup

Acquire all necessary components for the dish.

Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium-sized cooking vessel over an intermediate heat setting, allowing it to melt. Sauté sliced onions and chopped celery until they become tender.

Introduce broccoli into the mixture, followed by a suitable broth, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

Transfer the soup into a blender container, filling it no more than halfway full. Securely hold down the lid of the blender using a folded kitchen cloth, and carefully initiate the blending process, starting with a few rapid pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Continue blending in batches until smooth, then pour the resulting mixture into a clean cooking vessel.

Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in an even smaller saucepan over an intermediate to low heat setting, stirring in a small amount of flour. Gradually add milk while stirring until the mixture thickens and becomes bubbly, then combine it with the soup. Season with pepper to taste before serving.

Serve the dish hot and indulge in its delightful flavors!
