Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Brie Cheese Soup.
Step 1
To start your delicious soup, grab a large saucepan and melt some butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the butter is bubbling, toss in the minced onion and chopped celery.
Step 3
Sauté these aromatic veggies until the onion turns a lovely translucent color, which should take about five minutes.
Step 4
Next, sprinkle in the flour and keep stirring for another three minutes.
Step 5
This step is crucial, so make sure to stir constantly to prevent any burning.
Step 6
Now, it’s time to add the chicken stock.
Step 7
Gradually whisk it in, ensuring there are no pesky lumps.
Step 8
Let this mixture simmer gently for about twenty minutes, stirring occasionally until the celery is nice and tender.
Step 9
Once your veggies are ready, introduce the star of the show: cubed Brie cheese.
Step 10
Stir it in and watch as it melts into creamy perfection over the next five minutes.
Step 11
Now comes the fun part! Carefully pour the soup into a blender, filling it no more than halfway.
Step 12
Secure the lid with a folded kitchen towel for safety, and pulse a few times to get things moving.
Step 13
Blend until the soup is silky smooth, then transfer it back into a clean pot.
Step 14
Heat the blended soup over medium-low heat until it’s almost simmering, and then stir in some heavy cream for that rich, velvety finish.
Step 15
When you’re ready to serve, ladle the soup into bowls and add a pop of color with finely sliced red and green bell pepper strips on top.
Step 16
Enjoy this comforting bowl of goodness that’s perfect for any occasion!.
