A Guide to Making Soup with Cauliflower
Roast, simmer, and mix are the three simple processes that I like to think of when I think of this recipe for cauliflower soup.
Begin by roasting the vegetables. The cauliflower should be cut into florets, and the cores should be chopped up. Start by peeling and chopping the shallots. Garlic cloves that have not been peeled, a sprinkle of olive oil, and a pinch each of salt and pepper should be wrapped in a piece of aluminum foil.
TIP FOR RECIPE
Do you not own shallots? A half of a yellow onion, chopped, should be used in their place. You should use the onions in the same way that you would use the shallot; put them to the foil along with the onions.
A baking sheet that has been prepared with parchment paper should be used to spread the chopped cauliflower florets and core in a uniform layer. Then, sprinkle the cauliflower with oil, salt, and pepper. After adding the foil packet to the sheet, roast the veggies until they are all soft and the cauliflower has a browned appearance.
The next step is to simmer. A big saucepan should be heated over medium heat, and the vegetable broth should be brought to a simmer. First, peel the garlic cloves, then add them to the saucepan along with the cauliflower, shallots, and thyme. Stir everything together. Simmer for fifteen minutes after lowering the heat to a low setting.
Blend the soup until it is smooth. Permit it to cool down a little bit. Next, move it from the soup pot to a blender while it is still hot. Miso paste, mustard, olive oil, and lemon juice should be added to the mixture.
In the event that you would like, you are free to utilize an immersion blender for this stage.
Blend until it is completely smooth. Add more salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste before you eat, and do so in accordance with your preferences.
Complementary Dishes that Accompany Cauliflower Soup
Your dish should be garnished with micro greens, fresh parsley, and/or freshly cracked black pepper when you are ready to eat. Additionally, if you wanted to add some crunch to this cauliflower soup, you might try topping it with homemade croutons.
The creamy soup is delicious when served with crusty bread, focaccia, or a grilled cheese sandwich on the side for dipping.
In addition, it also goes well with a salad on the side. Italian dressing, honey mustard dressing, or lemon vinaigrette may be used to make a simple green salad simply mixing mixed greens with various dressings.
