Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups broccoli florets and peeled stems cut into chunks
3 cups chicken stock
1 clove garlic, peeled and cut in half
1 cup milk, cream or yogurt
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine the broccoli and the stock in a saucepan. Simmer, covered, until the broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes. During the last minute or so of cooking, add the garlic (this cooks the garlic just enough to remove its raw taste).
  • Puree in a blender, in batches if necessary, until very smooth. Stir in the milk, cream or yogurt, and reheat gently; do not boil. Season to taste, and serve.
