• Add the cauliflower, potatoes, almond milk, salt, pepper, and thyme.

VEGAN CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a soup pot and add the onion. Sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until both are golden.
• Add the broth, cauliflower, potatoes, seasoning, and cumin. Bring to a slow boil, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Remove from the heat.
• To puree in a blender: Transfer the vegetables and a little of the broth, along with the beans, to a blender and puree until smooth. Do this in batches if need be. Transfer the puree back into the soup pot.
• To puree with an immersion blender: Simply insert the immersion blender into the pot and process until soup is as smoothly pureed as you can get it - it's not going to come out as smoothly as it would in a blender. Of course, if you prefer you can leave a little texture on purpose.
• Stir in enough plant-based milk to give the soup a medium-thick consistency, then add the creamer. Season with salt and pepper. Heat through over medium-low heat until piping hot, about 5 minutes, but don't bring to a simmer.
• If time allows, let the soup stand off the heat for 1 to 2 hours then heat through before serving. Top each individual serving with 2 or 3 of the garnishes.

VEGAN CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Start by prepping the onion and garlic. Cut the cauliflower into florets, they can be on the large side as you can break it down as it cooks.
• In a heavy bottom pan, heat the butter over medium heat, add the onion and saute for 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Add the cauliflower, thyme, salt and pepper, and water/broth.
• Bring the chunky soup to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until cauliflower is fork tender.
• Stir in the vegan cream or plant milk and lemon juice.
• Once soup is done, let rest for 10 minutes to cool. Using an immersion blender or cup blender, puree the soup until desired consistency. Season with more salt & pepper as needed. Heat over low until warmed through as needed.
• Serve with a few reserved toasted cauliflower pieces, drizzle of vegan cream and/or fresh cracked pepper. For a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or crushed mustard seeds. Pair with homemade Artisan Bread or soft and chewy Vegan Naan for soaking up the juices.
• Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 days in a covered container. To store longer, freeze for up to 2 - 3 months.

Steps:

• Place the whole head of garlic unpeeled in an oven at 200 C / 400 F for about 30 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large saucepan fry the leek in a little olive oil until soft. (About 3 minutes).
• Add in the cauliflower and stir for a couple of minutes until well coated.
• Squeeze in the roasted garlic pulp.
• Cover with the vegetable broth. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to a medium flame, and simmer partially covered for about 30 minutes until the cauliflower is soft. I like to stir frequently and mash the cauliflower with the spoon as it cooks to make it easier to blend.
• Let the mixture cool enough to put batches in the blender, and puree with the cashews until smooth and creamy.
• Transfer to a clean pot and heat on low to serve. Season with Celtic salt to taste.
• To serve - top each bowl with a grain ball and a generous sprinkle of chives.
