Directions
-
In a large Dutch oven or saucepan, combine diced potatoes, chopped celery, chopped carrots, chopped onion, minced garlic, vegetable stock, black pepper, thyme, and nutmeg.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
-
Once boiling, cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the vegetables are very tender and the potatoes are fully cooked, about 15-20 minutes.
-
While the soup simmers, steam the broccoli florets until just tender-crisp.
-
Transfer the cooked vegetable mixture and broth to a food processor or blender.
-
Process until completely smooth and creamy.
-
Return the pureed soup to the saucepan.
-
Stir in the steamed broccoli florets.
-
In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg yolk and combine with milk and soy sauce.
-
Slowly stir the egg mixture into the warm soup over low heat, ensuring it does not boil to prevent curdling.
-
Serve hot, garnished with minced fresh parsley, a dash of paprika, or other desired toppings.
