Did I lose you at cauliflower? Don’t go! if you’ve ever had an unfortunate experience with a cauliflower this soup will make you fall in love with it anew. Turning the gnarly florets into a velvety textured, deliciously seasoned and deeply nourishing soup is a work of alchemy.
Of course you know all about how impressively good cauliflower is for you – forget kale for a moment, cauliflower is the king of cruciferous vegetables 🙂 It’s cancer fighting, relives oxidative stress and fights heart disease, frankly cauliflower is powerful stuff and why wouldn’t you want more of it in your diet? especially when it tastes like this.
Since the temperatures are now crisp and fresh in New York soup is very much on my radar. Make it ahead and it will happily sit in the fridge for a few days or better yet freeze it and literally save it for a rainy day.
How to make a delicious Cauliflower Soup
- Make sure you deeply caramelize the onions, this can take a little time, up to 20-25 minutes but it’s worth the wait as it provides a lovely rich flavor.
- As there are so few ingredients make sure they’re good quality and fresh!
- Blend, blend, blend! use a sturdy upright blender and keep going until it’s perfectly smooth.
- We eat with our eyes so swirling in some coconut cream, drizzling over some olive oil and sprinkling over some fresh herbs just lifts the whole experience.
