What's soup season without broccoli cheddar? Not a soup season we want to be a part of. For minestrone is magic, and chowder cheery, but the mix of broccoli and cheddar in soup form is held in high esteem for a reason. Every spoonful will hit your taste buds perfectly, especially with the salty prosciutto and crunchy fresh green onions augmenting the already amazing experience. Broccoli cheddar, take a bow. (Or a bowl!)

  1. 1

    Crisp Prosciutto and Prepare Ingredients

    Remove prosciutto from refrigerator. Place prosciutto in a single layer on a large plate. Cover loosely with a damp paper towel. Microwave until darkened, firm, and crinkled all over, 2-4 minutes.

    Remove from microwave. Set aside to cool, at least 5 minutes. Prosciutto will crisp as it cools.

    While prosciutto cools, coarsely chop broccoli into bite-sized pieces.

    Tear cheese into bite-sized pieces.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

  2. 2

    Cook the Broccoli

    Break cooled prosciutto into bite-sized pieces.

    Place a medium pot over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add broccoli, half the prosciutto (reserve remaining for garnish), white portions of green onions, 3 Tbsp. water, and a pinch salt and pepper to hot pot.

    Cover, and cook until water is almost completely evaporated, 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Start the Soup

    Uncover hot pot, and stir in flour until no dry flour remains.

    Add 2 cups water, cream base, demi-glace, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Stir vigorously until smooth, then bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Add cheese and stir vigorously until melted and smooth.
