Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the soup will be. Look for fresh spinach, flavorful onions, and a good-quality chicken broth.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will lose its vibrant green color and delicate flavor.
  • Use a good immersion blender: A good immersion blender will make it easy to blend the soup until it is smooth and creamy. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a regular blender, but be sure to work in batches.
  • Season to taste: Every palate is different. After blending, taste the soup and adjust the seasonings accordingly. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: This soup is delicious on its own, but you can also serve it with a variety of toppings, such as grated Parmesan cheese, crumbled bacon, or a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

Chez Panisse Spinach Soup is a classic recipe that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its vibrant green color, creamy texture, and delicate flavor, this soup is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover spinach. So next time you have some spinach on hand, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
