Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Milk
- 4 ounces, crumbled Blue cheese
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish) Chives
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower into small florets and discard the tough stem.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant.
Add the cauliflower florets to the pot and stir to coat with the onion and garlic mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is very tender.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches to blend, then return it to the pot.
Stir in the milk, crumbled blue cheese, salt, and black pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through (about 5 minutes).
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped chives before serving.
