This is much better. A lot of limp broccoli in the store too. I had to paw through all of it to find these sturdy heads. Must be a bad month for it or something.

Why would you want limp, rubbery broccoli? If I wouldn't serve it raw I won't cook with it. I would know it's in there and it would cease to be appealing.
90 minutes of simmering later. It doesn't need nearly this long. I just got distracted watching a movie. But this is fine. I don't want so much liquid considering what's going in.

I suppose you COULD utilize old, limp, rubbery, lifeless and pale broccoli into this soup if you didn't give a shit about quality. I just wouldn't. I had to throw the other away. Broccoli is inexpensive. Life is too short to eat bad produce.

Yeah, it's for soup. Nothing is lost except toughness. I've blended it too early and the texture isn't as good. There's a lot of cheese and bacon grease in this soup. It's actually quite forgiving to the broccoli no matter what.

I've never considered making broccoli soup but with bacon fat onions I don't see how it could turn out bad. Of course it looks like slop but I bet it tastes great

It's amazing. I only put it in a bowl with bacon for the picture. I usually just add a little Tabasco and drink it from a coffee mug. Very rich. Keeps you full for many hours.

Must suck living in a third world shit hole that barely has food and the food they do have is almost expired. The bacon looks like shit too.

Why is it always poor people making these threads? It's never anyone who actually knows how to cook. Just some random retard making low grade slop looking for praise from other poors who can't cook.

this
once broccoli goes limp all the juices from it get teleported into the limp dimension to the flavor goblin who hogs all flavors
do not use it in soup, it would taste different (and the goblin would laugh at you)
