# How to Make It:
01 -
Melt butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add diced onion, chopped carrots, celery, and season with salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, approximately 10 minutes.
02 -
Reduce heat to medium. Stir in minced garlic, dried oregano, thyme, and sage. Cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently to release aromas.
03 -
Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat evenly. Continue cooking for 1 minute while stirring constantly to eliminate raw flour taste.
04 -
Pour a portion of the vegetable broth into the pot to deglaze, scraping browned bits from the bottom to enhance flavor.
05 -
Combine diced potatoes, drained corn, chopped broccoli, and remaining vegetable broth with the pot contents. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
06 -
Cover and bring mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to low, maintain cover, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
07 -
Remove from heat. Stir in heavy cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and balsamic vinegar until cheese is fully melted and incorporated.
08 -
Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley, additional shredded cheddar, and oyster crackers as desired.
