Instructions

Cut the broccoli heads into florets and finely chop the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

In a large pot, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about one minute until fragrant.

Add the broccoli florets to the pot. Stir to combine, ensuring the broccoli is mostly submerged.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the broccoli is tender.

Using an immersion blender, blend the soup directly in the pot until smooth and free of large chunks. (Alternatively, you can transfer it to a standard blender to process until smooth.)

In a separate small pot or saucepan, melt the remaining two tablespoons of butter.

Whisk in the heavy cream and flour. Cook the mixture briefly while whisking until it begins to thicken.

Stir the cream thickener into your broccoli soup base until well combined.

Add salt and pepper to taste, stirring well. Serve warm and enjoy your homemade soup.
