Ingredients

• 1 large Cauliflower head
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 4 cups Chicken or vegetable stock
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground white pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or chives (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the cauliflower into florets and discard the hard core. Rinse the florets under cold water and set them aside.

Step 2

Peel and finely chop the yellow onion and garlic.

Step 3

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the cauliflower florets to the pot and stir well to coat them in the butter.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.

Step 6

Using an immersion blender, puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg (if using). Simmer gently for another 5 minutes to heat through. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 8

Serve the soup hot in bowls, garnished with freshly chopped parsley or chives.
