   Notes: We're still experimenting with this recipe. The ratio of broccoli to potato is a work in progress. Our first attempt did not roast the broccoli, which gave the soup a raw flavor—not unpleasant, but not what we wanted. We had great luck with a couple of pinches of smoke-flavored sea salt as a garnish.
