Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons butter divided
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 stalk celery chopped
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 8 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium stock pot over medium heat. 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 an immersion blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
- Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium to medium-low heat; stir in flour and add milk. Stir until thick and bubbly, and add to soup. Season with pepper and serve.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
