Cooking Tips:

What’s the ingredients in the soup?

The soup ingredients are broccoli flowers, diced onions, chicken broth roux with flour & butter, cheddar cheese to make it creamy, cheesy.

Can I use fresh broccoli or frozen broccoli?

Either one is okay to use. If you using frozen broccoli make sure let it thaw out first before using.

Fresh broccoli make sure to wash broccoli under cold water and pat dry with kitchen towel.

What other cheeses can be use?

In my recipe I use cheddar cheese but you also can use Swiss cheese to make the soup.
