Cauliflower soup recipes - 9 recipes
Cauliflower soup was the first course I served for my very first dinner party. Nervous and new to the world of cooking, I was looking for a simple and elegant way to start the meal. I decided to omit the bacon and cream in the recipe I was using, making my soup consisting only of cauliflower, carrots, celery, onion and chicken stock. I topped my cauliflower soup before serving with freshly grated parmesan and a drizzle of truffle oil adding a bit of decadence and transforming it into a showstopper. I typical make my cauliflower soup this way for parties. If I am having a casual dinner at home or I'm craving something warm on a winter’s night, I may sprinkling a little crumpled bacon on top or add sour cream and green onions dishing my cauliflower up like potato soup. The mild flavor of cauliflower makes the possibilities endless for this soup.
