CREAM OF SPINACH SOUP



Cream of Spinach Soup image

Puréed vegetable soups can be lean and spare or rich and creamy, spicy or subtle, hot or cold. They can be vegetarian or quite meaty. And much of the cooking time is just for simmering. This spinach soup, with a touch of nutmeg and some cream, is a classic combination, and its flavor justifies that distinction.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound spinach, well washed, thick stems trimmed
3 spring onions or 3 bunches scallions, trimmed and roughly chopped
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
Small grating of nutmeg
Salt and pepper
1 cup heavy or light cream, half-and-half or milk

Steps:

  • Combine spinach, onions and stock in a saucepan, and turn heat to medium high. Bring to a boil, and lower heat so mixture barely bubbles. Cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach is very tender, about 10 minutes. Turn off heat, add nutmeg and a sprinkling of salt and pepper, and let cool at least a few minutes.
  • Pour soup into a blender, in batches if necessary, and carefully purée. Return to pan, add cream, and, over medium-low heat, reheat gently, stirring occasionally. When soup is hot, adjust seasoning, and serve.

CREAMY SPINACH SOUP



Creamy spinach soup image

The lovely, leafy spinach in this recipe makes for a flavoursome and intriguing bright-green soup

Provided by Maxine Clark

Categories     Dinner, Soup

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

50g butter
1 medium onion , finely chopped
2 garlic cloves , finely chopped
1 medium potato , peeled and chopped into chunks
450ml chicken or vegetable stock
600ml milk
450g fresh spinach , washed if necessary and roughly chopped
finely grated zest of half a lemon
freshly grated nutmeg , to taste
3 tbsp double cream , to serve

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large lidded saucepan, add the onion and garlic and fry gently for 5-6 minutes until softening. Stir in the potato and continue to cook gently for 1 minute. Pour in the stock and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the potato starts to cook. Pour in the milk and bring up to a simmer, then stir in half the spinach and the lemon zest. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes until the spinach has completely wilted down. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the soup into a blender (preferably) or food processor, add the remaining spinach (this will keep the soup bright green and fresh tasting) and process until silky smooth - you may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your machine. (The soup may now be frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost in the microwave or overnight in the fridge. The soup may lose some of its vibrancy on freezing, but the flavour won't be impaired.) Return to the pan and reheat. Taste and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. You may like to dilute the soup with a little extra stock if too thick. Ladle the soup into bowls and swirl in the cream
