Sweet caramelized onion and carrot form the base of this cozy soup, simmered with garlic and tender broccoli until every bite is rich and comforting. A touch of dry mustard and cayenne adds warmth and depth without overpowering the vegetables, while freshly grated sharp cheddar melts in to create that irresistibly velvety, cheesy texture the dish is known for. The broccoli gets simmered until fork-tender, then partially blended so you still get hearty bites of vegetable in every spoonful alongside all that creamy body. It's the kind of soup that feels indulgent but comes together with everyday ingredients and simple stovetop technique. This one is a great choice for a gluten free kitchen, delivering all the classic flavor and comfort of the original without any compromise on taste.
