This Roasted Broccoli and Mint Soup recipe is a harmonious blend of rustic charm and refreshing flavors. Roasting the broccoli not only deepens its natural sweetness but also adds a smoky undertone that is wonderfully offset by the bright, cool notes of fresh mint. The red onion caramelizes in the oven, bringing a subtle sweetness that complements the garlic's pungent aroma and the earthiness of the parsley.
