VITAMIX BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP RECIPE | BRIAN'S KITCHEN

- Quite possibly one of the BEST soup ever made in a blender. PERIOD. This was a recipe that I used to make while I was a Vitamix demonstrator way back in the day! It was a hit every single time.
I did notice, however, that a lot of people were very confused on how i made it so good and when they tried it, it sucked. Well, there are some tips and tricks to this machine and I am going to TELL YOU ALL OF THEM when you SUBSCRIBE to my channel.
Recipe: P.S. I don't really measure my ingredients but this is my best guess...
- 2 cups of milk (2% in this video but any milk will do just not flavoured milk)
- A handful of coleslaw or just raw cabbage
- 1 stalk of celery
- 1/2 or so of raw carrot
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 slice of cooking onion or any other onion for that matter
- 1-2 broccoli florets (i like them steamed but raw works too)
- 1 beef bouillon cube (without the foil....I shouldn't have to say that)
- 1 small-ish chunk of parmesan or sharp cheddar cheese
- Couple dashes of Mrs. Dash
- 1-2 tablespoons of raw Pearl or Pot barley (depending on how thick you want the soup)

My new favorite cooking channel. Hope you continue to consistently upload. I have made your Taco soup and Salsa. Will have to try this soup and your vegan cheese sauce. New into is electric as well
This really made my day ♥ . I hope you know that. 😊🙏
Absolutely brilliant! This is how most of us cook; basic ingredients and equipment. Love the fact that the Vitamix is an old workhorse and not a shiny new ‘supplied’ one for the demo.
Just tried this today and it was so good! Did not have carrot or cabbage on hand, but had beef broth to use up and used left over broccoli and cauliflower, along with chicken flavoring and a bit of left over evaporated milk. Thank you for the Vitamix lesson on how to make this soup.
First recipe I made today in my new Explorian, which replaces my Culinary Institute's pro model that my late husband bought for us years ago. Recipe came out super fine. Here's a tip. I found the pearl barley in the hispanic food section of Walmart. Really works well to thicken it up as he said.
Oh yum! I just got my Vitamix and broccoli creamy soup is my favourite! I have to make this ASAP!
Just made this. It was delicious. Thank you. The pearl barley was a game changer.
I hope Vitamix is still giving you money from this demonstration! I'm watching and all I can think is, "YES! I need to go out and buy myself a Vitamix so I can make this soup!"
Sadly they are not giving me anything but the happiness of owning the best blender in the world!
YUM!!! Well done 😊. Great tip about the pearl barley.
Tip… if you want to clear up the film on the inside of your container, use a damp magic eraser (original) and “polish” the inside. Be careful of the blades and you might need to do it twice. Then, just dry it w/a microfiber cloth after each use or two.
I’ll make this recipe very soon . I got my vitamix at Costco and I’m so happy ! I’m making my smoothies and saving tons of money
What a great video! Me and the lady just got ourselves a 2500i and can't wait to try out your vitamix recipes!
Thank you for the recipe! Made it today! It was fabulous!
Thanks so much for sharing this. I am going to try making soup when the autumn cooler days start.
"... cuz that's gross." I love it !!!
I tried your recipe for the first time for supper last night. It's uber delicious.
There were a number of changes. First, I replaced the milk with an organic oat-cumin broth since I'm lactose-intolerant. Then, due to space constraints in my small fridge I decided not to buy the celery, so no celery. Also, no onion or Mrs. Dash. I also omitted the salty soup cube altogether since I'm watching my sodium intake. For taste I relied on a couple of extra garlic cloves and the cumin in my broth. I appreciated having the pearl barley to thicken my soup.
I enjoyed 2 cups of this soup with a few organic pita chips. Then, I filled a 1-cup container with most of the rest of the soup. As a frugal tip, I added water to my Vitamix to collect the remaining soup. That's enough to enjoy 2 more servings of soup with future meals.😊
I am so glad you were able to modify this recipe for your needs. That’s the beauty of this machine.
Yum! I have the same Vitamix, can't wait for more recipes. I have only used mine for smoothies lol
Had mine about 15 years!!
It looks so good! I need to go shopping and get the ingredients!
Looks yummy,I'm going to make it on a freezing cold winter's day.
Great and entertaining Demo - thank you -now going to go and make the soup
Love it! Great presentation!
thanks for the pearl barley tip! im gonna use that in my next creamy vitamix soup!
I received my vitamix yesterday. I love it. I made your salsa. So yummy. Please up load more videos. I wish I had bought one sooner.
Hi, I'm Polish to. I Love any broccoli soup . Good stuff
Love your personality and love the soup!
You are too nice!
Excellent soup. I wasn’t going to go to the store just for pearl barley but you said it was a game changer. I’m glad I did! Soup was thick and delicious. I did the parmesan, but added 1/4 cup fresh cheddar as well. My vitamin has a soup button so I just used that.
I added the recipe to my keepers file. :). Thank you so much.
This warms the cockles of my heart…I have no idea if cockles is spelled this way. Lol
Just got a vitamix today and THIS recipe was the first thing I made! De Lish!! Thank you
I’m so happy for you!
I am totally amazed that it heats up! Have to look for an infomercial or demo.😸
this was actually the best broccoli soup recipe i've ever found. I didn't have the pearl barely so I'm looking forward to trying that to thicken it up.
I am so flattered by that! Glad you found me!
Hahaha entertaining and informative! Love it
Perfect time to come upon your video! It is Autumn here in the midwest and I have been looking for a gtreat soup mix. Yes! Yours is the best! All I am going to add in mine is ham squares. :D XOxo
Just got out vitamix today, your soup recipe was the 2nd thing we tried. Chicken bullion in place of beef, no coldslaw, added a touch of cream, no garlic, my wife's alergic. Also added some canned chicken. It was very tastey, thanks. Oh yeah added a little summer squash and some flax seed, didn't have barley.
So glad you liked it!
Vitamix needs to get this guy the latest machine!!!!!
Amen, Sarah! AMEN!
I'll be making this this week!
THANKS brother. Excellent breakdown. I look forward to tryin' it out. Peace!
Oh yeah! (step-by-step with the video) facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10224268032352592&set=pcb.10224268032832604&type=3&theater
Just made this recipe and am eating it right now. My oh my is this the best soup I've ever had! Thanks Brian!
I love that you love it! Keeps me wanting to make more videos for you all!
I did this soup in my Vitamix knockoff. Turned out deeelicious!!!!
Bryan's gotta be from the Midwest. 🤣The soup? Chef's kiss 👌
i got one for christmas, omg i can't wait to make soups. New subscriber :)
Which one did you get? I'm so excited for you!
The E310
You will love it!
Pearl barley is a good idea to thicken soups-I normally use dry rice.
omg i need to sub to this channel you made me laugh SO hard! Thx for the recipe, Im going to try it tomorrow for lunch!
You are too nice! I'm sorry I don't make tons of content. Hard to squeeze it in between being a dad and working full time. Anyway, I am trying to work on more. Thanks for subbing!
This is good. I’ll be making this again.
I'm flattered! Thanks for the compliment!
Awesome!
YUMMMMMMMMMM..... I want some. 🥰👌🏽 I have had my Vitamix for over a year. I have not made this soup yet. No more waiting. It's on!! I have some left over Raw Broccoli and I just received some fresh Smoked Gouda. Soup Cheers. Thank you Brian!! 😃
So glad you enjoyed this video too! BTW, I just got a new Vitamix so I am doing an unboxing video coming out soon.
@@BriansKitchen That's so Great. I can't wait to see the video and see which one you chose. I have the Ascent 3500. S.S. I treated myself when I received an awesome project. Tonight I just made a whipped lemon garlic sauce for a spinach and mushroom pasta. Cheers to your New Vitamix Brian. 😀
I chose the A3500 too! I did an unboxing video. It's up!
Recently picked up the 3500i. Definately gonna try this. Might swap the barley for lentils since that's what i have.
Great video! Great looking soup bud, you’re making me hungry for it.. I got me a 6500 w/ hot soup prog at Costco in ‘17..Luv it , Thanks 😊 will try your broccoli soup asap ?: how long did you steam the broccoli? don’t have any cubes but try lil chicken bouillon
Gotta try this.
Awesomeness
Perfect 👌 👍 🥰
Thanks 🤗
Thanks for the recipe, it looks AMAZING! Is your container 64oz - I would need to modify for a 48oz - Thanks Again!
Thank you for great videos! Please can you show us some more soup recipies one can make in a vitamix please! Also other vitamix recipes!🙂Greetings from Sweden🇸🇪
Delicious, I might try to add a little bit more barly,
Just tried this with my new toy. Amazing even if I did forget the cabbage. I see what you mean about the broth taking on the flavour of the vegetable if you put too much in.
Awesomesauce!!
Oh hell yes!
This looks the bomb cant wait to try it do you have any advice for a guy going through severe mental health issues and stuff the miranda house in hull uk think I may be on the spectrum somewhere it's upsetting but my head can't seem to figure that out and process anything properly is it due to my crap diet etc ordering vitamix Monday so tomorrow for me and I can't wait
Hey there. I'm so sorry I didn't see this comment until now. I am sorry that you are going through mental stress! Diet will help but certified professionals will help more. Never be ashamed of it, I go to therapy as well to help me get through different mental health stresses. Keep fighting the good fight and thanks for watching!
This looks sooooooooooooo good but now I'm hungry... thx Brian !
Just made this with the raw broccoli and it definitely had that earthy, raw broccoli taste overpowering it. Definitely trying steamed next time. Also, if you're trying to go for a Panera copycat with this - the cheese will make or break this dish. I used a vegan cheese (Violife) and it really didn't melt and I often got chunks of carrots and cheese to chew through rather than a velvety mouth feel.
I definitely prefer the steamed broccoli. Way better tasting. I find the Daiya cheese melts pretty good if you do the vegan version. Thanks for commenting and watching!
Btw high setting is equivalent to 10, no need to use the dial if you turn it high. Thumbs up
Not on mine. You can max out the dial but the separate button is clearly a faster speed. Maybe the new ones are different. Mines about 15 years old
Too funny; thanks!
That looks awesome! Can i use full fat coconut milk?
Sure. Whatever you need to use. It’s more about the “how to make soup” than the actual recipe.
Awesome!!
Thank you, El Cardoso!
You are hilarious man,
Dude- you think you have a classic? I have a TNC- when they were called Total Nutrition Centers from the early 90's. It
is a work horse- still chugging along. Saw a demo at the Indiana State Fair and had to have one!!! It was a lot more expensive then. The ones now you can get 300 at Costco. I think I paid over 600.
Love your Valley Girl voice lol.
Thanks Brian. Quick tip meant respectful. Go buy mr clean magic eraser and use it on inside outside of your blender will look new again in about 5 minutes:) just did mine from used one got on ebay. Have good day.
I will try that! Thanks for the tip! Hope it works.
@@BriansKitchen honestly these things will change your world use them on walls counters cabinets dishes fridge you name it. Good luck. Can get generic ones also cheap at dollar tree type stores.
I have a friend who sells the commercial version of the magic eraser. I'm going to go all out if I'm going to try these.
@@BriansKitchen okay now I'm curious ill have to look into that lol awesome.
I must have done something wrong. Only my second use with my new Vitamix. The first thing I made, a smoothie, turned out great. This soup? Well, I think I used too much pearl barley, too big a garlic clove and maybe my onion chunk wad also too big. You are not kidding about a little goes a long way. Maybe I'll stick to smoothies for a bit.
I laughed the whole time
Just bought the E310 today at Costco. But it doesn’t have a soup or ice cream setting😕 I see that your didnt either yet it made hot soup! Do/can you make smoothies too with your Vitamix series?
You don't need a soup setting, you only need to run it on HIGH speed for a long time.... Like 5-6 minutes. If you start with hot water instead of cold, it will only take about 3 minutes. Hope this helps!
@@BriansKitchen ok thank you! I thought I was going to have to return it.
What else can you use besides pearl barley? I am gluten free and can't eat barley.
You could try arrow root powder. That's what I use to thicken gravy for my sister-in-law who is also gluten-free. Maybe corn starch?
We just bought a 5200 for Christmas (yeah. I’m the weirdo who wanted a blender for a gift). I’m late to the game with this video, but can I use bouillon granules? We always have Dasida (Korean beef flavoring) available, too.
You can use whatever soup stock you want! 😊
Any advice for someone who doesn't use the cubes but the better than bullion ,"paste" ?
I have that as well. Just use a tablespoon and 2 cups of water.
@@BriansKitchen thank you!
I made it with raw and it definitely should be steamed broccoli. Didn’t enjoy the raw taste in hot soup.
I agree. I don't like it with raw either. I prefer to steam mine. Wayyyy better! Thanks for the comment. 😉
I have a question. Can I grind turmeric in it? I know turmeric stains but want to make sure before I mess it up😊just in case you know
You can but like you said, it will stain. You will also need the dry blade unless you have an Ascent series and you have the blending bowls.
I think I have the standard. But thanks for the response
I didn’t know it can heat up this hot
Parmagianno-regianno - I don't know I'm Polish 😄
I wonder would it still be as good with almond milk?
I'm going to go with, no. But give it a try!
Have you made a carrot ginger soup?
Don't like the ingredients in the cubes. So, can a vegetable/chicken/beef broth be used instead of it and even the milk??
Absolutely! This is more about the process than the ingredients. However, make sure you use some sort of broth or the soup will taste like garbage!
Im from Poland too hahaha
Silky smooth, thick and tasty, but I need to put a warning up. I used one clove of fresh garlic with the skin of course and man oh man talk about a strong flavor! I'm going to be burping garlic all day! The soup was easy and delish, hold half a clove of garlic. Did anyone else find this to be true?
For me, I love garlic so this wasn’t a big deal for me but I totally understand if people don’t want a strong garlic flavour. In that case, use a half clove like you did.
Nice soup, thank you! one little detail, maybe next time, get a new blender container, it looks very dirty and unpleasant. But, like I said thank you for the recipe!!
Yummy
so is the plastic stained? Im sure its not dirty
I think it is a bit of both.
just a frugal tip to only slice off the portion of onion or garlic that the recipe calls for then wrap the rest to preserve freshness
Great tip!
This soup flavor is good, not on par with Panera, they must have some secret spices, I've seen others putting an entire block of sharp cheddar cheese in the pot style, I'll have to try doing a full 8 oz block next time. Had a good flavor, I'm just partial to the Panera recipe.
I'm glad you have a flavor that you enjoy. I'm just a guy showing you 'how' to make it. The recipe part is up to you!
why does your container look so gross? is it from your water or maybe from making hot things in it? I don't want mine to get dirty, yellowed and cloudy like that.
It's gonna happen!
I'm told, white vinegar to clean it (let it sit) and don't grind dry ingredients, get another container for that.
you forgot to buy the artisan bread to eat with yar soup
What happened to the blender jar?
It's just well used!
@@BriansKitchen - I enjoy your presentations.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching.
You're funny though 😂
Which Vitamix Facebook group are you on?
Really don’t understand why Cole slaw mix 😊
Me neither. Just extra veggies I guess. It was part of the recipe when I used to sell the machine at roadshows. It doesn’t have a strong flavour so it won’t change the taste of the soup and it gives more fibre.
Also…I too am a Guitar Lover! 😉
@@BriansKitchen thanks for explaining! I was hoping it wasn’t essential for this recipe bc I would like to try it and rarely buy that ingredient
I don’t have a vitamix
Sorry to hear that! Get one. You will not regret it.
The squealing brakes and crash sound. Freaked me out.
Yeah, I’m just taking your recipe and subbing oat milk and vegan cheese for all of the cows breast milk products because I’m not a baby cow and don’t have the same nutritional needs as a Calf 🥰 also a stalk of celery is generally 2 pounds or so a rib is the individual stick within the stalk :)
I hope it turns out great! Let me know!
@@BriansKitchen yeah will do ! Using oat milk and Violife brand cheddar 10/10 recommend :) great informative video on cooking times and amounts to get thickness right though :)
The situation of this plastic jar is the reason why you should get a stainless steel jar as replacement.
I really want that one! I am going to wait until I get a new machine for now. The jar is like $250 CAD.
Ah, just so you know, Brian, how do you, like, know what garbage tastes like? @4:20 ;-)
(Tried to use your funny, "steamed broccoli" voice).
Smell is heavily connected to taste. So, I guess I just assumed I know what garbage tastes like. Haha.
I guess the claims that the jar is resistant to stains and easy to clean was bogus.
I worked for Vitamix, I do not remember such a claim.
@@BriansKitchen Well I just ordered an Ascent, it’s one of the claims now. Supposed to be resistant to tomato stains.
Resistant yes. STAIN-PROOF? Probably not. I'm not sure. I just got my Ascent 3500 and I don't put that stuff in it.... I use the stained Vitamix for that! 😂
Thank you for not doing a vegan video. It seams all youtube channels with a vitamix are to proud to be vegan
I am definitely not a vegan! Thanks for watching!
Yup got a subscribe here, not a vegan either! Love your videos Brian!
I’d rather my soup taste like garbage than the garbage that’s in the bouillon cube. I do make my own spice and salt mix but to ones each own
Don’t shoot the messenger. Make it how you want. I’m just the teacher showing how to use the machine. You do you. Live your truth ….or something like that. 🤷
Can I get a 😂👌
You like that, eh? 😂
mehhhh
I was good until you showed the barley! 😛
Just an option to thicken. You can use something else if it helps you sleep better at night. 🤪
@@BriansKitchen lol thanks!
This jar needs some real cleaning
I'll take donations for a new stainless steel jar... 😘
@@BriansKitchen you don't need new, you just need to clean this one lol. CZcams has some great vids on how to clean Vitamix containers. 😁
