Creamy Broccoli Soup
Print Recipe
If you are making other broccoli dishes in which you really only want the florets, save the stems and use them within the week for this delicious soup. You only need 2 cups of florets to stir in after pureeing, so make up the difference with peeled and chopped stems in the soup. Alternately, just use a big bunch of broccoli, and use up every bit of it.

Instructions
  1. Peel and chop broccoli stems and onion, reserving the broccoli florets. Put in a big pot, add rice and stock or water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer until vegetables and rice are very tender, about 15 minutes.
  2. Reserve 2 cups of broccoli florets, then add the rest of the florets to the soup and simmer for 5 more minutes. Steam or microwave the remaining 2 cups broccoli florets just until crisp tender.
  3. Puree the broccoli mixture in batches to a smooth consistency, adding sour cream and milk as it becomes smooth.
  4. Return to pan and gently reheat, whisking in just enough milk to thin to a consistency of your liking.
  5. Stir in broccoli florets, salt, pepper and basil. Warm just to serving temperature. Be very careful not to boil.
Recipe Notes

If you want  a heavier ratio of stems: 1 1/4 pound stems and 5 ounces broccoli florets
