Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, diced
1 1/2-pound cauliflower, trimmed, cut into florets
1 pound carrots, peeled, sliced
1 large onion, chopped
4 cups (or more) canned vegetable broth
6 1-inch-thick French bread slices
12 ounces Gouda cheese, wax removed, cheese sliced

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, cauliflower, carrots and onion; sauté until onion is golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add 4 cups broth; bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer until vegetables are tender, adding more broth if soup is too thick, about 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before continuing.)
  • Preheat broiler. Transfer soup to large broilerproof bowl or individual broilerproof soup bowls. Arrange bread slices atop soup. Place cheese slices over, covering bread completely. Broil 6 inches from heat source until cheese melts and is golden, watching closely to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. Gouda, Edam, and Maasdam are all good choices for this soup.
  • If you don't have any boerenkaas on hand, you can substitute another type of hard cheese, such as cheddar or Gruyère.
  • Be sure to grate the cheese finely so that it melts smoothly into the soup.
  • Add the cheese to the soup slowly, stirring constantly, to prevent it from curdling.
  • Serve the soup immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.
