Broccoli and Stilton soup
Broccoli is a vegetable from the cabbage family, as is cauliflower. In my kitchen, I mostly use broccoli for making soups. From time to time, I also add it as an addition to various dinner dishes. When I do so, it is either boiled in water or baked in the oven.
Broccoli soup made only with broccoli tastes bland. Therefore, in order to get an intense and a nice flavour to this vegetable, other ingredients should be added. Undoubtedly, one of the best options is cheese. You can choose between feta, cheddar or blue cheese. I placed bet on the last one. It has a very intense flavour, so it is worth combining it with vegetables, which taste quite common.

Good to know when making broccoli and Stilton soup.
I made the soup on water. If you want the soup to have a more intense flavour, replace the water with vegetable broth.
