Hello, friends and community!

Greetings to you all. Whenever we embark on a task, we hope for a positive outcome, but sometimes we face disappointment. This reminds us that no one is perfect. Cooking is no different – we may succeed many times, but at times, anxiety can creep in as the final dish is revealed.

Today, I'm sharing the story of my broccoli soup. I always believe that food should not only taste good but also look appealing. I planned to make broccoli soup with the expectation that it would turn out a lovely green color. However, to my disappointment, it didn’t meet my expectations. I learned an important lesson: when cooking green vegetables, avoid using red onion together.

1 big red onion
5 cloves of garlic
15 cashews

1 vegetable stock cube
2 avocado

And the broccoli The green broccoli but it turned out a dull gray color Ohh.🙃

when it was cooked, I blended it using an immersion mixer

20241118_190315.jpg
And the color is totally disappointing.

I added a few saved broccoli greens

and the cashew cream, but there is no way to make it an appetizing green. but the taste is good.

20241118_190516.jpg
finally, this is a disappointing result.

20241118_190835.jpg
Then I thought avocado would help but I never cooked avocado and don't know how it tastes after cooked. I cut avocado.

20241118_191741.jpg
Roasted some chickpeas with chili.

20241118_191958.jpg
Garnished with avocado slices, pour 1 tbsp cashew cream left over in the cup put some chickpeas on the top, and done. this way I managed to serve the soup. After that, I felt good to see my soup bowl. The taste was super but I had a challenge making the soup look appealing.
Thank you for reading my Story of broccoli soup.

Well for me looks good, maybe it's not green as you wish but from your preparation it's surely super good, I love broccoli ❤️❤️

In winter this stuff is kind of a gift for us and after drinking it we get a lot of relief. The story you told is quite interesting.

Without doubts this recipe will taste absolutely great, judging from the ingredients displayed

say, how to get such beautiful avocado. here is very difficult, even when I have to ripen it for a few days and then suddenly rot.
