Cauliflower Soup

January 29, 2010 By Sarah 'n Spice Leave a Comment

The Pioneer Woman has so many amazing recipes on her blog, I visit it daily. With the cooler weather outside, I was looking for a new soup to make. I’ve never had Cauliflower Soup, and considering Cauliflower is one of Len’s favorite vegetables, I knew I had to make it the moment I saw it on her blog. The recipe is pretty simple and the result was truly amazing…something I was not expecting. It is rich and creamy and a perfect comfort food on a cool winter day. We served it up with some delicious onion bread and it was so good! Definitely give this one a try!

(Printable Recipe)
Ingredients

* 1 stick Butter
* ½ whole Onion, Finely Diced
* 1 whole Carrot Finely Diced
* 1 stalk Celery, Finely Diced
* 1 whole (to 2 Whole) Cauliflower Heads (roughly Chopped)
* 2 Tablespoons Fresh Or Dried Parsley (chopped)
* 2 quarts Low-sodium Chicken Broth Or Stock
* 6 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
* 2 cups Whole Milk
* 1 cup Half-and-half
* 2 teaspoons To 4 Teaspoons Salt, To Taste
* 1 cup (heaping) Sour Cream, Room Temperature

Directions

In a large soup pot or dutch oven, melt 4 tablespoons butter. Add the onion and cook for a few minutes, or until it starts to turn brown. Add the carrots and celery and cook an additional couple of minutes. Add cauliflower and parsley and stir to combine. Cover and cook over very low heat for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, pour in chicken stock or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to simmer.

In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter. Mix the flour with the milk and whisk to combine. Add flour-milk mixture slowly to the butter, whisking constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup half-and-half. Add mixture to the simmering soup. Allow to simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Check seasoning and add more salt or pepper if necessary.

Just before serving, place the sour cream in a serving bowl or soup tureen. Add two to three ladles of hot soup into the tureen and stir to combine with the sour cream. Pour in remaining soup and stir.

Serve immediately.
