Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
10 ounces fresh spinach
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/2 medium onion, chopped
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the spinach and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mixture to a blender or food processor, pour in 1/4 cup hot water and pulse until pureed. Set aside.
  • In a large soup pot, cook the onions in the butter over medium heat until the onions begin to soften. Sprinkle the flour over the top and stir to combine.

Pour in the pureed spinach, then cook until thickened, another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Check the seasonings, adding more salt, black pepper or cayenne as needed. Serve warm.

CREAM OF SPINACH SOUP



Cream of Spinach Soup image

Serve this creamy spinach soup piping hot, with a fresh buttered baguette. Delicious! You can make a vegetarian version by using vegetable stock in place of the chicken stock. Also, you can add a dash of paprika, cayenne, or red pepper flakes if you like more spice. Note: I used a 32 oz. box of organic chicken stock, and we thought it was fine that way (we like ours with plenty of broth). But the three cups of chicken stock that the recipe calls for should work nicely if you like a thick soup, or are going to blend it. I don't have an immersion blender, but feel free to blend this soup if you prefer a smooth version.
