About the broccoli soup

This is a vegan broccoli soup or cream of broccoli without dairy, although delicious. It is a simple recipe and very easy to create. And this recipe is also straightforward to make, and even more, it’s super easy, but it has two or three different things to the traditional soup.

Tips & tricks

This is my version of a broccoli soup that is delicious and fancy enough for a formal dinner or a special occasion.

This broccoli soup has shitake mushrooms crisps, garlic, garlic, and shallots. Yum! But not because it’s elegant and “fancy” means that it will stop being good for us.

I think we don’t give all the credit that mushrooms deserve, and the truth is that they are an essential source of minerals and an excellent source of vitamin B. So we should eat them pretty often because they are delicious.

Don’t throw away the broccoli stems, you can use them to make broccoli salad.

Tips for making the best shiitake crisps

  • These chips can be in the oven, air fryer, or pan.
  • Either way, they are delicious but are easier to make in the oven.
  • They may seem like you have many mushrooms cooking, but they turn out to be a small amount once cooked – think about it beforehand!
  • You can save the stems of the mushrooms to add them to the soup or make vegetable broth afterward.
  • They taste delicious in sandwiches and salads if you make plenty of them.

About shiitakes

Shiitakes are known in Asia for their properties to give us tons of good stuff. And now, if we combine them with the properties of broccoli, we have a super dish. Two super-powered ingredients unite in one recipe.
