Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup butter
1 small onion, minced
3 stalks celery, chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken stock
½ pound Brie cheese with the rind, cubed
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon green bell pepper, cut into very fine matchsticks
1 tablespoon red bell pepper, cut into very fine matchsticks

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook the onions and celery until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in the chicken stock. Simmer until the celery is tender, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the Brie cheese, and allow to melt for about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth, and pour into a clean pot. Heat the soup to almost simmering over medium-low heat. Pour in the cream. To serve, garnish with red and green pepper strips.

BROCCOLI / BRIE SOUP RECIPE - (3.3/5)



Broccoli / Brie Soup Recipe - (3.3/5) image

Provided by UncleDick

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds broccoli florets
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
Fine sea salt
1 clove garlic, grated
Freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth, preferably organic
2 1/4 cups whole milk
6 ounces brie
1/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • 1. Add one quarter of the broccoli to a food processor, and run the machine until the broccoli is very finely chopped. Remove the chopped broccoli to a large bowl, and repeat 3 more times until all the broccoli is finely chopped. Set aside. 2. In a large soup pot with a lid, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions, and season lightly with salt. Sweat, stirring often, over medium heat for 2 minutes, until the onions are just softened and fragrant. 3. Add the broccoli and garlic to the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Lower heat to low to medium-low, and cook covered for 5 minutes. 4. Remove the lid from the pot, and stir in 2 tablespoons flour, until well distributed. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, just to remove the raw flour taste, stirring continuously. 5. Add the chicken stock and the milk. Raise the heat to high until the liquid boils. Immediately reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer 15 minutes. The broccoli should be completely cooked, and the soup slightly thickened. 6. Cut the rind off the brie, and cut the brie into small chunks. Add the brie and cream to the pot. Cover, and cook over the lowest heat for just 2 minutes to melt the cheese. Use a whisk to incorporate the melted cheese into the soup. Serve immediately.
