Hello, friends and community!

Greetings to you all. Whenever we embark on a task, we hope for a positive outcome, but sometimes we face disappointment. This reminds us that no one is perfect. Cooking is no different – we may succeed many times, but at times, anxiety can creep in as the final dish is revealed.

Today, I'm sharing the story of my broccoli soup. I always believe that food should not only taste good but also look appealing. I planned to make broccoli soup with the expectation that it would turn out a lovely green color. However, to my disappointment, it didn’t meet my expectations. I learned an important lesson: when cooking green vegetables, avoid using red onion together.

I added a few saved broccoli greens

and the cashew cream, but there is no way to make it an appetizing green. but the taste is good.

finally, this is a disappointing result.

20241118_190835.jpg
Then I thought avocado would help but I never cooked avocado and don't know how it tastes after cooked. I cut avocado.

Roasted some chickpeas with chili.

20241118_191958.jpg
Garnished with avocado slices, pour 1 tbsp cashew cream left over in the cup put some chickpeas on the top, and done. this way I managed to serve the soup. After that, I felt good to see my soup bowl. The taste was super but I had a challenge making the soup look appealing.
Thank you for reading my Story of broccoli soup.
