BROCCOLI BISQUE
     BROC-BISQUE - A broccoli soup - hot or cold
     This recipe is from my mom.  It's been a hit every 
time she
     or I have served it.  It is rather spicy - not 
for the timid
     or faint-of-heart.
INGREDIENTS (Serves 8)
     1 1/4 lbs fresh broccoli, trimmed and cut up. Using 
slightly
               more is fine.
     4 cups    chicken broth (2 cans of canned broth, 
or use
               fresh stock)
     1         medium onion
     2 Tbsp    butter
     1 tsp     salt
     1-2 tsp   curry powder
     1 dash    pepper
     2 Tbsp    lime juice
     8         lemon slices, (optional)
     1/2 cup   sour cream
     1 Tbsp    snipped chives, (optional)
PROCEDURE
          (1)  Place the cut broccoli in a large saucepan 
along
               with the broth, onion, butter, salt, 
curry powder,
               and pepper.
          (2)  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer, 
covered,
               for 8 to 12 minutes or until broccoli 
is just
               tender.
          (3)  Place 1 1/2 to 2 cups of the mixture 
at a time
               into a blender container.  Cover and 
blend until
               smooth.  Pour into bowl or another large 
pan.
               Repeat with remaining mixture.  Be careful. 
 The
               hot liquid may scald you.
          (4)  Stir in the lime juice.
          (5)  Now you can either cover and refrigerate 
at least
               4 hours to serve cold (great in warm 
weather), or
               you can go right ahead and serve it hot 
(great in
               cold weather).  Once ladled out, you 
can garnish
               with a thin slice of lemon, a small dollop 
or sour
               cream, and a sprinkling of chives.
NOTES
     You can refrigerate unused portions for serving 
later, but
     it doesn't keep well for long.  I like to blend 
it pretty
     well, so that the texture is quite smooth.  Some 
people like
     it a little chunkier.
RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 45 minutes.  Precision: 
approximate
     measurement OK.
