After they are cool, chop finely.After the stems are soft, puree them until smooth using a blender or stick blender.Place the olive oil in a medium stock-pot over medium-high heat and add the onions. Reduce the heat to medium and cook slowly until soft. Add the flour and stir until well blended. Add the milk and stir.
