• Using a hand blender or a regular blender*, blend until smooth (see notes for regular blender).
• Stir in cream and heat through for 2-3 minutes.
• Garnish with herbs and croutons if desired.

CREAMY TURNIP SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Peel the turnips, chop them into small chunks, and set them aside.
• Peel and finely chop onions or clean and finely chop leeks . Set aside.
• Chop garlic and set aside.
• Heat the oil or butter in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions or leeks, sprinkle with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the turnips and broth. Bring everything to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook until the turnips are very tender about 10 minutes.
• In a blender, whirl the soup until very smooth, at least 2 minutes per batch. (Tip: Cover the lid of the blender with a kitchen towel to prevent burns.)
• Return the soup to pot and add the cream. Adding just 1/4 cup will smooth out the edges of the soup; the more you add the thicker and more luxurious the soup will become. Add salt to taste.
• Garnish with shreds of thinly cut turnip greens or parsley, if you like. Serve the soup hot.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP

BEST CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium sized stock pot, and saute onion and celery until tender. Add broccoli and broth, cover and simmer for 10 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. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
• In small saucepan, over medium-heat melt 3 tablespoons butter, stir in flour and add milk. Stir until thick and bubbly, and add to soup. Season with pepper and serve.

CREAMY BROCCOLI-TURNIP SOUP

Steps:

• In a microwave-safe bowl, heat cream cheese for 30 seconds. Mix in spice and set aside.
• In another bowl, dissolve bouillion cube in 3 cups of boiling water. When dissolved, pour into a slow cooker.
• Mix the cream cheese mixture into the bouillion water. Add the remaining ingredients, and stir to combine.
• Set slow cooker to cook on HIGH for 2.5 to 3 hours. Then using a hand blender, blend mixture until slightly smooth.

SIMPLE CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot, melt butter and cook onion until tender over medium high heat. Add potato and toss to coat with butter. Add hot stock and bring to a simmer. Stir in broccoli and return to a simmer. When potato and broccoli are tender, puree in batches in a blender or food processor. Return to pot and add cream. Season to taste and serve warm.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• Cut off the broccoli stems, then cut the stems into 1-inch-thick slices. Separate the florets into small pieces. Reserve the stems and florets separately.
• Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high and add the olive oil. Stir in the onion, carrot, tomato, sweet potato and the broccoli stems, spread in an even layer and season generously with salt and pepper. Let the vegetables on the bottom sear without stirring until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add the garlic powder and stir with a wooden spoon to hydrate the spice in the fat and continue cooking for another minute or so. The tomato will start to break down and get jammy.
• Add the coconut water, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to keep the soup at a gentle boil and continue cooking until all of the vegetables are mostly softened and the stock is imbued with savory flavor, about 10 minutes. For a creamier texture, remove the broccoli stems to snack on or discard; for more broccoli flavor (and roughage), leave the stems in.
• Stir in the broccoli florets and tofu, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover and cook until a paring knife easily cuts the stem part of a broccoli floret, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Carefully ladle the contents of the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, then add more coconut water or water to thin out the soup to your desired thickness.
• Serve hot in shallow bowls, each serving dolloped with a spoonful of fridge-cold ricotta, if using, and lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs, if desired.

CREAMY TURNIP WITH PAPRIKA SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
• Add turnips, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until vegetables start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add paprika, thyme and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
• Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until turnips are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
• Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.
