Cheese soup.
Just saying it conjures up visions of comforting spoonfuls of love. Don’t believe me?
Told you.
This recipe comes from the hubby’s side of the family and is soup from a now long defunct tea room they would go to on occasion. It is rich, velvety smooth and probably has enough sodium to produce heart palpitations if you got super out of control with it. This batch gave one big serving to the hubs, four cups to his mama and four cups to some friends. It is truly a delicious soup but the video will give you a hint how to use it another way! Let’s grill up some ham sammies and go on a dippin’ expedition!
Old Fashioned Cheese Soup
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Velveeta, cubed
- 1/2 c. flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups preferred milk (2%)
- 1 can mixed veggies, drained
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3/4 to 1 1/2 tsp seasoning salt
- 1/4 cup onion or shallot, diced
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large dutch oven or stock pot.
- Add onion and saute until softened.
- Slowly add flour stirring to make a roux.
- Add milk, stirring constantly on medium heat and add seasoning salt and bring almost to a boil.
- Add cubes of Velveeta.
- Stir constantly allowing it melt slowly. Don't turn up the heat or it'll burn.
- Add drained mixed vegetables to soup.
- Give a final stir and taste to adjust seasoning if necessary.
The video shows you how to bring it all together and what the recipe should look like in different stages.
