Stilton has a strong flavour....you don't need much extra apart from a good veggie stock onion and lots of flat-leaf parsley. Keep the brocolli green and pre cook it before adding it to the soup so that it keeps the bright green colour. It's best put in the whizzer ..Dolcelata is probably to creamy...Stilton will crumble and mix in better. You can also try it with Gorgonzola...or Danish blue, they have a better texture to be turned into soup. If you need any help with Numptie reccipes...give me a shout...I'm a chef.

Here's my recipe;



1 large onion, chopped and softened in a little olive oil add 3 large heads of broccoli cut into small florets. Add 2 pints of really good stock (I use chicken, but vegetable is great for vegetarians) allow this to simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the broccoli is soft.



Cut some stilton into small cubes and add to the broccoli stock and a little salt and pepper (not to much salt the stilton is quiye salty) I like to add a little mixed herbs. Now blend the entire mixture until smooth, return to the heat and bring back up to serving heat, turn off the heat and stir in a quater pint of double cream, serve with parmesan shavings on the top.



Lovely and warming

Cook broccoli and stocks until soft, then blend with a hand blender, add chicken stock cubes or vegetable cook and simmer for a further few minutes, add a good wedge of stilton and double cream. Crisp up some bacon and chop into fine pieces for garnish.
