Time 1h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick butter
1/2 onion, finely diced
1 carrot, finely diced
1 celery stalk, finely diced
1 cauliflower head, cored and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth or stock
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 cup half-and-half
1 to 2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
Ground black pepper
1 heaping cup sour cream, at room temperature
Warm rolls or crusty bread, for serving

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.
  • You will love everything about this.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER SOUP



Roasted Cauliflower Soup image

The color of sunflowers, this gently spiced soup comes from Yasmin Khan's "Zaitoun: Recipes From the Palestinian Kitchen," in which Ms. Khan explains that cauliflower is elemental in Palestinian cooking. Here, cauliflower florets and leaves are roasted in the oven with cumin and coriander until browned, the vegetable's deep, nutty flavors coaxed out by the heat. Reserve some roasted florets and leaves for garnish, then simmer the remaining cauliflower mixture with turmeric and potato, which adds creamy texture to this thick, velvety soup. Sprinkle the soup with any remaining cauliflower, crunchy toasted almonds and as much fresh parsley as you'd like.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large head cauliflower (about 2 pounds), stem discarded, florets cut into 2-inch pieces, leaves reserved (if available)
2 medium white onions, halved and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
Sea salt and ground black pepper
2 tablespoons salted butter
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 large potato (about 14 ounces), skin on, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 quart vegetable or chicken stock
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
Coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Arrange the chopped cauliflower, any cauliflower leaves and the onions on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with cumin, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Use your hands to mix everything together, then arrange in an even layer. Roast until the cauliflower is browned and cooked through but still has some bite, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in the potato and turmeric, add the stock and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook until the potato is soft, about 10 minutes.
  • When the cauliflower is done, reserve about 1 cup cauliflower for the topping (including leaves, if you have them) and add the remaining cauliflower and onions to the soup. Return the soup to a simmer and cook until flavors meld, about 5 minutes. Blitz with an immersion blender until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • Toast the almonds in a dry skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 4 minutes. When you are ready to serve, ladle the soup into warmed bowls. Top with the reserved roasted cauliflower and a scattering of almonds and parsley.

Provided by pammyowl

Categories     Scandinavian

Time 35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups water
1 head cauliflower, 1-1/2 lbs., separated into flowerets
1 medium onion, diced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 cup half-and-half or 1 cup milk, your choice, I prefer milk
nutmeg (optional)
sherry wine (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the 2 cups water to boiling, add cauliflower and onion. Cook until soft, approximately 10 minutes. Do not drain. Blend with an immersion blender or in a regular blender until smooth.
  • Heat butter in a three quart saucepan until bubbly, add flour, salts and pepper, cook and stir for one minute. Remove from heat, stir in the last cup of water and the bouillon, return to stove, heat to boiling, stirring constantly for one minute. Add cauliflower mixture, heat to just boiling, slowly add 1/2 and 1/2. Heat just until hot.
  • Sprinkle each bowl with a touch of nutmeg, optional.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: A head of cauliflower that is compact and heavy for its size is best. Avoid heads with brown spots or blemishes.
  • Trim the cauliflower properly: Cut off the leaves and the tough outer part of the stem. Cut the cauliflower into florets, about 1-2 inches in size.
  • Roast the cauliflower before making the soup: Roasting the cauliflower gives it a deeper flavor and helps to caramelize the sugars. This will result in a more flavorful soup.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even water. If you're using water, you may want to add some additional seasonings, such as salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
  • Don't overcook the soup: Cauliflower soup is best when it is slightly firm. Overcooking the soup will make it mushy.
  • Garnish the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for cauliflower soup include croutons, shredded cheese, bacon bits, or chopped parsley.

Conclusion:

Cauliflower soup is a delicious, healthy, and versatile soup that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover cauliflower, and it's also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. With its creamy texture and mild flavor, cauliflower soup is a soup that everyone can enjoy.
