In this recipe, broccoli rapini (leaf rabe) transcends its traditional Italian roots and replaces broccoli in a classic American cream soup. The soup is made with beer and milk, giving it a rich, creamy flavor, and a little flour helps thicken it. Blend the soup with an immersion blender and serve with a dollop of sour cream.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Blanch the rapini in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Once cool, shred and set aside.
  2. In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, 1 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the flour, add the beer, and bring to a boil.

  3. Add milk, 2 cups water, and soy sauce and bring to a boil again. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the soup thickens and reduces slightly, about 6 minutes.
  4. Add the chopped rapini. Remove the soup from the heat and blend thoroughly with an immersion blender. Add the cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Stir the sour cream until smooth, and add 1 tablespoon to each serving of soup. Sprinkle with paprika.
