Sick Help-burnt soup

I made broccoli soup which I've made before, however, after adding the cold milk and flour, the soup began to thicken, but did not come to a boil, I noticed a burnt smell, but because the soup was not boiling and I had kept stirring it and it didn't appear to be scorched on the bottom of the pot, I thought that something was on the burner burning.
The soup never did come to a full boil, but it has a very slight burnt taste. Is there anything I can do to remove the burnt taste. I hate to waste a full pot of soup.

Nope, sorry. Nothing you can do.

Throw the sucker out!

I remember a friend of mine burning the bottom of a huge pot of beans. There were so many, and we did everything to get rid of it, even add chipotle. It was GROSS. Very funny. And sad.

"He's dead, Jim."

We ruined a pot of chili and worked on "saving it" for an hour, to no avail. I felt like the doctor in those emergency room dramas who pounds on the long-dead patient's chest.

Toss the soup and start over.

When I make soups of cream or milk base I usually double boil it to avoid scorching. Process takes a bit longer but found it to be full proof especially if your multi-tasking. God knows I've botched my fair share of soups cause I got busy doing something else.

Best of luck....

Best regards....
