VEGAN CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP



Vegan Cream of Broccoli Soup image

We achieved ultimate creaminess without the cream by adding a Yukon gold potato to this low-fat, heart-healthy soup. The nutritional yeast, with its satisfying nuttiness, does a great job standing in for cheese; look for it in health and specialty foods stores.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped onion (from about 1/2 medium onion)
Kosher salt
1/2 cup chopped celery (from about 1 medium stalk)
1 clove garlic, smashed
Freshly ground black pepper
2 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced (about 3/4 pound)
4 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until light brown, about 7 minutes. Add the celery, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, 4 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt, raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Return the heat to medium, cover and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add the broccoli, cover and cook until the broccoli is bright green, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the soup to a blender; add the soy milk and puree until smooth, leaving the filler cap slightly open to let steam escape (or puree the soup in the pot with an immersion blender). Return the soup to the saucepan and bring to a simmer; stir in the nutritional yeast and nutmeg. Add water if needed to adjust consistency and add salt and pepper to taste.

VEGAN BROCCOLI SOUP WITH CASHEW CREAM



Vegan Broccoli Soup With Cashew Cream image

This nourishing, three-vegetable soup is thick and creamy, even without dairy. It takes very little skill and only 25 minutes to make, but success lies in proper blending: Use a high-powered blender for the creamiest soup, or let it go a few minutes longer in a standard blender. Fennel and celery provide welcome depth, and the quick cashew cream feels luxurious spooned over the top or stirred right in. Save any extra to drizzle on other blended soups or even roasted vegetables. Finish this vibrant bowl with celery leaves, parsley or dill, and two basic but crucial ingredients: an extra drizzle of olive oil and a dusting of freshly ground pepper.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups raw cashew pieces (or whole raw cashews)
Fine sea salt
1 cup boiling water
1 large head broccoli (about 1 1/2 pounds), florets chopped into bite-size pieces and stems peeled and roughly chopped
1 small fennel bulb, trimmed, quartered, cored and roughly chopped
2 large stalks celery, trimmed and roughly chopped, leaves reserved for garnish
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Torn fresh dill or parsley leaves
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the cashews in a blender along with a pinch sea salt. Pour the boiling water on top. Cover and let sit to allow the cashews to soften while you make the soup.
  • Combine the broccoli, fennel, celery, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon sea salt and 3 cups water in a pot and cover loosely with a lid, leaving a small opening so steam can escape (this helps the soup keep its bright-green color). Bring to a boil over high, then steam vegetables over medium until they are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Purée the cashews and water until completely smooth and frothy (the cashew cream should be the consistency of very loose whipped cream). Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if desired to thin the mixture. Spoon the cashew cream into a bowl.
  • Working in batches if necessary, transfer the steamed vegetables and their cooking liquid to the blender and purée on high until completely smooth and frothy. Taste, and add more salt as needed. Divide the soup among bowls and top with cashew cream, celery leaves, dill, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve warm.
