From the Test Kitchen

For this rich, comforting soup, you'll cook broccoli florets in a mix of cream, chicken broth, and more before stirring in a duo of grated cheddar and smoked gouda until melted. A side of garlic-rubbed toast is perfect for dipping as you go.

Prepare the ingredients
1 Prepare the ingredients

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Peel 1 clove of garlic. Wash and dry the broccoli; cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the stem, then cut the broccoli into small florets. Grate both cheeses on the large side of a box grater.

Make the garlic toast
2 Make the garlic toast

Halve 2 rolls horizontally, then halve crosswise on an angle (you will have 2 extra rolls to save for future use). Place the halved rolls on a sheet pan, cut side up. Drizzle with olive oil. Toast in the oven 4 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned around the edges. Transfer to a work surface. Immediately rub the cut sides of the bread with the peeled garlic clove; discard the clove.

Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the butter and mirepoix. Cook on medium, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until combined and the butter is melted. Add the flour. Cook, whisking frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until combined (the mixture will thicken into a paste). Working in batches, slowly add the broth, whisking constantly to incorporate. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until smooth and no lumps remain.

Turn off the heat. Stir in the grated cheeses until melted and thoroughly combined. Serve the finished soup with the garlic toast on the side. Enjoy!
