Place the pot over medium heat. Once the butter begins to melt, add the onions. Season them with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saute the onions until they become golden. Don&#8217;t rush this step and adjust the heat as necessary to keep them from browning too fast. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the potatoes. Stir them to coat with oil and let them sizzle away for a minute or two. Add the broccoli and do the same as you did with the potatoes. Add the stock.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bring the stock to a boil. Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning. Go easy on the salt though because the Parmesan has lots and will act as seasoning as well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Simmer the soup until the broccoli and potatoes are tender. The broccoli is not going to remain vibrant green, but if it is good broccoli it won&#8217;t be olive drab either.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the potatoes have cooked through, add the parmesan, the remaining butter, and the basil. Stir to combine and serve with more black pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,9],"tags":[68,162,1070,28,119,395,90,1041],"class_list":["post-8112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-recipes","category-soup","tag-broccoli","tag-butter","tag-fresh-basil","tag-garlic","tag-olive-oil","tag-parm","tag-potatoes","tag-stock"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8112"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8112\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8114,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8112\/revisions\/8114"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mimbly.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
