Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup shallot (minced)
  • 4 cups broccoli (chopped very small)
  • 2 cups unsalted chicken stock (or bone broth or vegetable stock)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

  • 8 ounces sharp white cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 4 ounces smoked Gouda cheese (shredded)

Instructions

  • Add the butter to a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic and shallot and cook until fragrant and just soft, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Stir in the chopped broccoli, stock, salt, and pepper. Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the broccoli is just tender, about 6-7 minutes.
  • Mix in the heavy whipping cream and cook for another minute or two until the soup is just heated through.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and stir in both cheeses until melted and fully blended into the soup.
  • Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Serve hot.

Notes

Tips & Techniques

  • For best results, and to avoid graininess in your soup, shred the cheese from a block.
  • Use a food processor to chop the broccoli quicker.
  • If you use salted stock, omit the salt in the recipe and just season at the end, if needed.
  • Store extra soup in air-tight containers in the refrigerator. Use within 3-4 days.
