Seasonal Soup

Creamy cauliflower soup sans cream ( I added some leftover chopped carrots to the soup recipe and some parsley as a garnish) you can get the recipe here- Around My French Table http://www.amazon.com/Around-My-French-Table-
With the extremely cold weather on its way to the Northeast, it's always nice to come home to a bowl of soup.  This soup recipe from Dorie Greenspan's book is really great ( the main ingredients are super simple; olive oil or butter, onions, garlic, celery, thyme, chicken or vegetable broth and cauliflower) and easy to make. This time I had some leftover carrots and decided to add them. The result altered the depth of flavor and color but you could still taste cauliflower. Either way this soup is worth a try.

  1. Terry, Was this a "thin" or "thick" consistency soup? The recipe, which I found on-line, looks really good but I'm wondering if it's a little thin--I like your idea of adding carrots and was thinking I might puree them to add a little thickness to the broth...

    1. The consistency is smooth but not heavy. Adding a little less broth will change the consistency.
