For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of sharp cheddar and Gruyere cheese. Garnish with a swirl of cream, a sprinkle of fresh herbs like chives or parsley, or a few crispy croutons for added texture. If you prefer a completely smooth soup, puree the broccoli mixture until completely smooth as well. Adjust the amount of evaporated milk to achieve your desired consistency. For a thicker soup, use less; for a thinner soup, use more.

Meanwhile, in the same pot, combine the chopped broccoli florets, chicken broth, and remaining 3 cups of water. Cook over medium heat until the broccoli is tender-crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
04
Step
5 mins
Using an immersion blender, puree the cooled potato mixture until smooth and creamy.

Return the pureed potato mixture to the pot with the broccoli. Add the cubed cheddar cheese and evaporated milk. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese is fully melted and the soup is heated through, about 15 minutes. Ensure the soup doesn't boil.
