Instructions
Creating Creamy Zucchini Soup is straightforward when you follow these clear steps:
1. Sauté the Onions and Garlic: In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onions and sauté until they become translucent (about 5 minutes). Then, add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
2. Add the Zucchini: Toss in the chopped zucchinis and stir well. Cook for about 7-10 minutes until they soften slightly.
3. Pour in the Broth: Add the vegetable broth to the pot, ensuring all vegetables are submerged. Increase the heat to bring it to a simmer.
4. Simmer: Lower the heat and allow the soup to simmer for about 15 minutes. This step helps the flavors meld beautifully.
5. Blend the Soup: Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. If necessary, blend in batches. Alternatively, you can use an immersion blender directly in the pot.
6. Return to Heat: Pour the blended soup back into the pot. Stir in the heavy cream and heat through on low for about 5 minutes, ensuring it doesn’t boil.
7. Season to Taste: Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed. Feel free to add any additional herbs or spices you enjoy!
8. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy while hot!
