Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 stalk celery, chopped
  • 3/2 cups chicken broth
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 3/2 tablespoons butter
  • 3/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cups milk
  • ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

1.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.

Step 2

2.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.

Step 3

3.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.
