This soup is a real mixed bag for me, which is why I gave it three stars. The main con is the consistency. Even with blending, I don't feel like it's a smooth soup - it's a little too grainy for my taste. The flavoring and ease of making it are the major pros. I think I would consider making it without pureeing next time and maybe add some potatoes and onions as well.

A great easy soup...I really did not measure the broccoli but know I had more than 3 cups so I added more garlic and ginger also along with mixed dried peppers and extra soy sauce...I kept the soy milk to 1 cup and used thick homemade spicy veggie stock (any good soup starts off from good stock :wink: )...to make the soup a bit more "creamy" I added some corn starch in at the last heating stage...also left a "bit of the broc" chunky to give each bowl a bite of "meatiness :) "...YUMMY :)
