HOT SOUP!
As February winds down and March gets closer there is still plenty of time for some seasonal comfort foods like hot soup. My wife had planned on making dinner for our kids and grand kids over the weekend, but plans changed when the grand kids caught colds. She had already broken a head of cauliflower into florets and placed them in a pot to be steamed when the plans got canceled. She told me I might as well do something with the cauliflower so instead of simply steaming it, I found an easy way to turn it into cream of cauliflower soup! This couldn't be any easier and there are only 3 ingredients. It came out fantastic! All you need is a pot and a blender.
CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP
Prep Time: 5 min
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower
1 cup of water
1/2 cup of aquafaba from a can of chickpeas
Place a vegetable steamer separator into a pot. Add 1 cup of water and the head of cauliflower florets. Bring it to a boil and put the lid on the pot. Cook until the cauliflower is very, very tender. Put the cauliflower with the water (which is now veggie stock) into your blender with the aquafaba. Blend it for about 5 minutes or until it is completely smooth. Aquafaba is already salty so you don't have to add salt, but season to taste.
That's all I did and I was tempted to eat the whole thing myself until I realized its an entire head of cauliflower with bean water. The consequences may be musical and unpleasant, not so much for me, but for my staff tomorrow! Stay tuned..... 😝
