Its been a particularly cold winter. But then we probably say that every year.  What I do know is that when the cold fronts come rolling into Cape Town and batter down on us, soup becomes a staple in my house.

Broccoli and blue cheese live so comfortably together on the flavour spectrum, its like they are the oldest and best friends.

I had bought some farm broccoli at the Hope Street Market and this is terribly easy to make.

Oh and I love to use the stalk of the broccoli head. It often makes up as much mass as the florets themselves, it tastes delicious and is perfect when it gets blended into soup.

I used my own home made chicken stock which I had frozen. Using home made stock makes the world of difference.
