Cream Of Cauliflower Soup Food

CAULIFLOWER-CHEDDAR SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until they start softening, about 4 minutes. Add the cauliflower, bay leaf, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the cauliflower starts browning, 5 minutes. Stir in the flour until absorbed, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and milk; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat; simmer until the cauliflower is tender, 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf.
• Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth (or puree in the pot with an immersion blender). Return the soup to the pot over medium heat. Stir in the cheese until melted; add up to 1 cup water if the soup is too thick.
• Add the sherry; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve with cheese straws.

CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP WITH SAUTéED WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Put the cauliflower, potato and onion in a large saucepan with the butter and half of the oil. Gently heat the contents until they start to sizzle, then cover with a lid and sweat over a low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The vegetables should be softened but not coloured.
• Pour in the stock and bring to the boil, then pour in the milk and return gently to a boil. This way, there will be no scum forming from the milk. Season to taste then simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are soft. Pour in half the cream.
• Blend everything in a food processor or blender, in batches. For an extra creamy texture, push the purée through a sieve with the back of a ladle. Stir in the rest of the cream. (If preparing ahead cool, cover and chill for up to a day.)
• To serve, pick over the mushrooms. Wild mushrooms can be gritty so wash them quickly in a bowl of cold water then drain well and pat dry. Trim the stalks and chop or slice the mushrooms neatly. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and, when very hot, stir fry the mushrooms quickly until nicely browned, seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper as you cook them.
• Reheat the soup until piping hot. Check for seasoning and ladle into warmed bowls. Spoon the mushrooms into the centre and sprinkle lightly with the chives. Italy's elegant, mildly citrussy whites, such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano, or a Chardonnay would suit this rich soup.

• Puree the soup using an immersion blender until smooth. Reduce heat to low, season with cayenne pepper and salt. Pour in cream and stir until warmed. Season with more salt if needed.
• Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer cooked bacon to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Season with salt and nutmeg, then place in a blender and blitz until smooth. If you like, you can sieve the soup to make it even smoother - I think this makes a difference and doesn't take much more effort, but it's certainly not essential.
• To serve, bring the soup to the table in the pan with a ladle and little dishes of all the different things you want to serve as sprinkles. Let everyone help themselves. I like to take little servings of soup and scatter over something different each time for variety.

• To serve, divide the cauliflower soup equally among four serving bowls. Serve with crusty bread and butter.

CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and roughly chop the onion. In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally and adjusting the heat so the onions are cooking but not browning, until the onions look starchy and a bit creamy, about 5 minutes.
• While the onions cook, peel and chop the garlic. Add the garlic to the pot and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the cauliflower or simply pull it apart into florets. Many people will be tempted to discard the solid white core, but it has plenty of flavor, so chop it up and add it in with the florets. Add the cauliflower to the pot, stir to combine, cover and cook 3 minutes.
• Add the broth, bring to a boil, and reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Cook until the cauliflower is very tender, about 10 minutes.
• Purée the soup with a hand-held immersion blender. Or whirl in a blender or food processor until smooth (place a kitchen towel over the blender to prevent potential burns); depending on how big your blender is, you may need to work in batches. However you puree the soup, whirl it for a bit longer than you think necessary to achieve the smoothest possible soup.
• Stir in the pepper and nutmeg. Taste and add more salt, pepper, and/or nutmeg to your liking. (Note: At this point the soup may be cooled, covered, and frozen for up to four months.)
• Stir in the cream and cook over medium-low heat until the soup is nice and hot. Serve the soup hot, with a sprinkle of parsley or chives as a garnish, if you like.

CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Melt 1/2stick of the butter in a heavy pot over medium heat. Then add the onions and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the carrots and celery, and then stir and cook for a couple more minutes. Throw in the cauliflower. Then stir it around, cover and cook over very low heat for 15 minutes.
• Add the parsley, and then add the chicken broth and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meantime, make a simple white sauce: Melt the remaining 1/2stick butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Then whisk in the flour. Cook for a couple of minutes, and then pour in the milk, whisking to combine. Remove the white sauce from the heat and pour in the half-and-half. Then pour this creamy mixture into the pot. Add 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste, and allow the soup to simmer for another 20 to 30 minutes. The soup will thicken slightly but shouldn't be overly thick. Give it a taste and add more salt if needed.
• Now, this is the fun part: To serve the soup, place the room temperature sour cream in the bottom of a soup tureen (a very large serving bowl). Then add the whole pot of hot soup to the tureen.
• Stir gently to combine, and then serve immediately with warm rolls and an appetite for something wonderful.
