For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. To prevent the cheese from clumping, shred it yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese. For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree the soup after cooking. Be careful when blending hot liquids. A pinch of nutmeg adds a warm, subtle spice that complements the broccoli and cheese beautifully. Adjust the amount of cheese to your preference. For a tangier soup, use a sharp cheddar; for a milder flavor, use a mild cheddar.
