CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP II
I make lots of cream soups and this is a good 'basic' recipe. I originally made this in 1990 and always make some modifications - we like lots of garlic as reflected in this recipe!! I also add or substitute other vegetables, i.e., broccoli and spinach. I also use potatoes for thickening rather than cream to keep the fat down.

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.

CREAMY CAULIFLOWER SOUP
That's why I love soup. You can do almost anything with them. If you want this soup heartier, set aside some chunked, cooked veggies. Then add them back to the pot with the pureed veggies.

EASY CAULIFLOWER "CREAM" SOUP
This will be my 5th posted recipe moving me from Preemie to Undiscovered Chef for the PAC 2011! 8) That's one way to get me to stop procrastinating! A good friend of mine made this one day when I was visiting and I was so impressed with the taste and simplicity that I had to make my own version. She used chicken bullion but I personally prefer home made chicken stock or at least canned (low-sodium) when I'm out of my own. This soup is very versatile and healthy. Lovely to eat as is or use as a base for whatever you want to add. It makes a great "cream" base for those that are lactose intolerant and gluten sensitive (and to hide those veggies from picky kids, big & small). I've added broccoli with the cauliflower but didn't really care for the colour so would likely add it pre-steamed at the end next time.

Steps:
- Cut away the thick stem base of the cauliflower and trim the florets from the head. Wash the cauliflower under cold water and chop it into 1-inch pieces.
- In a 3-quart pot set over medium-high heat, melt the butter, then add the bacon and onion and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in the stock and 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Add the cauliflower and turn the heat to medium-low. Simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the soup to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Puree half of the soup in a food processor or blender. Return the puree to the pot and add the milk, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg. Return to a simmer over medium heat, them remove from the heat.
- Beat the egg yolks in a heat-proof bowl. Ladle a cup of the hot soup into the yolks while whisking to temper the egg yolks. Repeat with another cup of the hot soup, then quickly stir the egg mixture back into the soup and stir for about 1 minute. Do not boil the soup or the eggs will curdle. Add the lemon juice, taste and adjust the seasonings, if necessary. Add the cayenne pepper and garnish with minced parsley or chives. Serve hot.
- The soup can be made 1 day in advance to the point of adding the eggs. Reheat the soup over medium heat and continue with the recipe.
