How To Make Potato Broccoli Cheese Soup

Important tip before starting

Be careful with the heat in this recipe. You want to occasionally stir but do not let the heat get too high. A very light simmer is fine but if you allow the soup to boil you could cause the milk to curdle and destroy the texture of the soup. The taste will be fine but the soup will end up having a gritty mouth feel.

This is why so many people ask why did my broccoli cheese soup separate. To add, pre-shredded cheese can also cause this effect. It’s always best to grate your own for soups and sauces.
