Cauliflower and White Cheddar Cheese Soup
0 Likes
Total Time:
Start by simmering cauliflower in broth with nutmeg, then blend with milk and cheddar for a creamy, cheesy soup.
Ingredients:
  • 2 small heads cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • 2 cups shredded white Cheddar cheese
  • freshly ground black pepper
Instructions:
  • Separate the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
  • Fill a large saucepan 3/4 full with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Add half of the cauliflower florets and cook until tender. Drain thoroughly.
  • In a 4 quart soup pot, gently melt butter over medium-low heat. Saute onion and garlic in the fragrant butter until onion is soft. Add vegetable stock and raw cauliflower florets. Season with nutmeg and bring to a boil; simmer until cauliflower is soft. Remove pot from heat and let it cool down.
  • Blend the soup-onion-cauliflower mixture in an electric blender until smooth, working in batches of 2 cups each. Return the blended soup to the 4-quart soup pot and heat over medium-low heat. Stir in milk and simmer. Add cooked florets and 1 1/2 cups of cheese, stirring until the cheese melts and the soup thickens. Serve hot, garnishing with cheese and black pepper to taste.
