How to Make the Best Cauliflower Soup
1) Roast Your Cauliflower
Behind that creamy beige exterior, you will be find loads of the irresistible roasted cauliflower flavor. Roasted cauliflower is a key here—cauliflower develops caramelized notes with a greater depth of the flavor as it roasts in the oven.
2) Build Flavor
Once to your roasted cauliflower is almost done, you will be a saute onions in a soup pot until tender, then add garlic and vegetable broth. Then, add to your roasted cauliflower and simmer in the mixture on the stove for about a 20 minutes to meld the flavors.
3) Add Butter for Creaminess
You will be a transfer in the contents of the pot to a blender and add a butter. Butter is an easy way to add mega creamy, luxurious flavor and texture without any cream (I borrowed this technique from my butternut squash soup). If you are like me, you always have a butter in the fridge, but rarely heavy cream!
4) Blend Until Completely Smooth
I recommend blending in this soup in a stand blender, rather than an a immersion blender, because stand blenders yield in the creamiest results. Fortunately, in the ingredients used here are fairly soft, so even an a inexpensive stand blender should work well (I used my fancy Vita-mix, affiliate link). The final texture, in my opinion, is a absolutely worth dirtying in the blender bowl for.
5) Season with Nutmeg and Lemon Juice
We are using small, subtle amounts of the nutmeg and lemon juice here. You probably would not be able to pinpoint them while you are sipping to your soup, but they offer a certain je ne sais quoi factor. They take this soup from great to the fantastic!
6) Sprinkle Something Fresh on Top
I tried garnishing my soup with a fresh parsley, green onion and chives. I loved them all and could not pick a favorite, so use a whichever you have on a hand!
