Organc express delivered two heads of caulflower in the last two
weeks, and I thought I should make some soup.
on a cookie sheet, in the oven, I roasted the cauliflower in 2 in.
pieces with a head of garlic cloves and sprinkled with olive oil, S&P,
for 45 minutes at 375 til almost tender and getting browned.
In a saucepan, I sauteed a rough chopped onion in butter and olive
until carmelized. I added a little sugar to get more carmelization.
Deglazed with a little sherry.
Added the roasted the cauliflower and garlic to the pan, and added
chicken broth and some water and 6 bay leaves. Simmered for 20
minutes.
Turned down the heat and added what I thought was half and half but
was non fat half and half (I have no idea how half and half can be fat
free). 10 more minutes of simmer. Turn it off. Cool. Blended in the
blender. Warmed up and served with a drizzle of olive oil, sour cream
and curly parsely chopped. Turned out great and seemed quite low cal
and very flavorful.
