Ingredients
  

  • 1 large head CAULIFLOWER
  • 4 tbsp BUTTER
  • 1 medium ONION
  • 2 stalks CELERY
  • 1 cup CARROTS
  • 4 cups CHICKEN BROTH
  • 1/4 cup ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
  • 2 cups WHOLE MILK
  • 1/2 cup HEAVY CREAM
  • 1 tsp SALT
  • 1/2 tsp BLACK PEPPER
  • 2 tbsp FRESH PARSLEY

Instructions
 

Step 1:

  • Wash your cauliflower under cold water. Remove all the green leaves first. Chop the head into small florets. Make sure they are bite-sized pieces. Smaller pieces will cook much faster.

Step 2:

  • Place the pot on the stove. Turn the heat to medium now. Add the butter to the pot. Let it melt until it bubbles softly. Do not let the butter turn brown.

Step 3:

  • Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Stir them into the melted butter. Cook them for about five minutes. They should be soft and very fragrant. The smell will be very wonderful.

Step 4:

  • Pour the chicken broth into the pot. Be careful of any hot splashes. Add the cauliflower pieces to the broth. The liquid should cover the vegetables completely.

Step 5:

  • Bring the pot to a boil. Then turn the heat to low. Put a lid on the pot. Let it simmer for fifteen minutes. The cauliflower should be very soft. Test it with a small fork.

Step 6:

  • Grab your small mixing bowl now. Add the flour and the milk. Whisk them until they are smooth. Ensure there are no white lumps left. This is a very important step.

Step 7:

  • Pour the milk mixture into the soup. Stir the pot constantly as you pour. This helps the soup thicken up. Keep stirring for about three minutes. The soup will start to look rich.

Step 8:

  • Take the pot off the heat. Use your immersion blender carefully. Blend until the soup is very smooth. You can leave some small chunks. It depends on your own personal taste.

Step 9:

  • Stir in the heavy cream now. Add the salt and black pepper. Taste the soup with a small spoon. Add more seasoning if you want more. Make it perfect for your own palate.

Step 10:

  • Ladle the soup into warm bowls. Top each bowl with fresh parsley. Serve it immediately to your hungry family. Enjoy your wonderful homemade creamy meal.

Notes

  • Use a fresh head of white cauliflower.
  • Do not let the butter turn brown.
  • Chop the veggies into very small cubes.
  • Always whisk the flour and milk well.
  • Let the soup cool slightly before blending.
  • Use an immersion blender for less mess.
  • Add more broth if soup is thick.
  • Season the soup at the very end.
  • Garnish with cheese for extra salty flavor.
  • Keep the heat low for the milk.
