GINGER-CAULIFLOWER SOUP



Ginger-Cauliflower Soup image

This simple soup, steeped with ginger and lemongrass, features a bright relish of lime zest, fresh ginger and scallions. The topping offsets the subtle, sensible cauliflower, and the soup is deceptively luxurious thanks to the addition of potato, which adds a natural creaminess. Serve with a crusty sourdough loaf or some thick slices of buttered toast.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 lemongrass stalk, tough outer peel removed, inner portion smashed, optional
1 (3-inch) piece ginger, peeled and grated (about 2 tablespoons)
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 medium russet potato, peeled and diced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
6 cups vegetable or chicken stock
4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 limes, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon honey
Salt

Steps:

  • In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the lemongrass and half the ginger and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, potato and garlic, then add the stock. Bring to a boil over high, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon ginger with the scallions, cilantro, vinegar, lime zest and juice, honey and the remaining 1/4 cup grapeseed oil. Whisk together and season with salt. Set aside. The relish will marinate and the scallions soften as it sits.
  • Remove and discard the lemongrass stalk from the soup. Using an immersion blender (or working in batches in a traditional blender), purée the soup until smooth. Add additional water, if needed, to thin the soup. Season to taste with salt.
  • Serve the soup topped with the ginger-scallion relish, and serve with a slice of buttered toast.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: For the creamiest soup, use a head of cauliflower that is fresh and white, with no brown spots or wilted leaves.
  • Roast the cauliflower before adding it to the soup: Roasting the cauliflower brings out its natural sweetness and gives the soup a richer flavor.
  • Use a high-powered blender or food processor: This will ensure that the soup is smooth and creamy.
  • Add the ginger and garlic gradually: Start with a small amount and add more to taste. Ginger and garlic can be overpowering, so it's important to use them sparingly.
  • Season the soup to taste: Salt, pepper, and nutmeg are all good options. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This creamy cauliflower with ginger soup is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover cauliflower. The soup is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and nutritious meal, give this soup a try.
