Instructions
For the Soup
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and black pepper and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute, then sprinkle in the flour and whisk continuously for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the flour turns golden. Slowly pour in the milk, whisking continuously.
- Add the broth, broccoli, carrot, and mustard and stir to combine. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
- Gradually add the cheese, stirring after each addition, until all the cheese is melted, and the soup is creamy. Season to taste and serve with croutons.
For the Croutons
- In a large pan, melt the butter and olive oil together over medium heat. When the foaming subsides, add the bread cubes and toss frequently until all pieces are coated.
- Continue stirring until all pieces are golden brown and crisp, about 5-10 minutes. Toss the hot croutons with the seasonings until evenly distributed.
