Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets (about 3 cups)
1 bunch radishes, trimmed and quartered (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 slices uncured bacon, chopped
1 large yellow onion, chopped (about 2 cups)
2 ribs celery, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
3 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 ounces Cheddar cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
Hot sauce, optional
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives, for serving, optional
Sour cream, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Place a large baking sheet in the center rack of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower and radishes with the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and spread the vegetables on the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast until the vegetables are tender and caramelized in spots, stirring once or twice, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Place the bacon in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and golden, 10 to 13 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a small dish. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat. Add the onion and celery to the pan, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the broth, add the roasted vegetables and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, partially cover and simmer to allow the flavors to meld, about 20 minutes.
  • Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender. Add the butter and 3/4 cup cheese and blend, being careful of hot liquid, until smooth. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce if desired. Return the soup to the pan to rewarm if needed.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large baking potatoes
6 bacon slices, plus crumbled cooked bacon, for serving
2/3 cup (11 tablespoons) butter
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
8 cups milk
5 ounces Cheddar, shredded, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 green onions (scallions), finely chopped, plus more for serving
8 ounces sour cream, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Wash the potatoes and prick them several times with a fork. Wrap them individually in foil and bake until they are soft when squeezed, about 1 hour (see Cook's Note). Let the potatoes cool slightly.
  • While the potatoes bake, cook the bacon in a small skillet, in a microwave or on an indoor grill until crisp. Drain the bacon on paper towels and, when cool enough to handle, crumble into small pieces. Set aside.
  • In a large heavy saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the flour, stirring constantly for 1 minute until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick and bubbling, 5 to 10 minutes. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop the flesh into the thickened milk mixture. Add the Cheddar, salt, pepper, green onions and reserved bacon. Cook over low heat just until heated through, then stir in the sour cream. Garnish with shredded Cheddar, crumbled bacon and chopped green onions and serve with more sour cream on the side.
