Equipments used:
Notes
- Broth: Store-bought or homemade. Chicken stock is also great.
- Coconut: Add coconut milk instead of heavy cream for a dairy-free version. Use a whole can (14 oz/ 400 g), but reduce the amount of vegetable broth; you will only need about 3 cups/ 700 ml if using a whole can of coconut milk.
- Cream: You can use half-half or whole milk instead. However, heavy cream is the best choice in terms of flavor and texture.
- Parmesan: It’s preferable to use freshly grated cheese; pre-grated cheese contains additives that prevent it from melting nicely and thus make the soup grainy. Freshly grated Parmesan also has more volume than already grated; that means that ½ cup is only about 1 oz/ 30 g. If using pre-grated cheese, you will only need about ⅓ cup, but, in the end, you can add it to taste.
- Blending the soup: It’s preferable to use an immersion blender. If using a stand blender or food procession, follow the safety steps: Let the soup cool slightly and blend it in batches, increasing the speed gradually and holding a folded, thick kitchen towel over the top to ensure the lid stays secure.
