Without a speck of milk or cream, we achieve a creamy consistency in this pureed soup. The magic happens thanks to cauliflower, which blends easily to silky perfection. We opt for cauliflower rice here for a couple of reasons: because it cooks quickly and because it’s typically made from the stems, which have a slightly richer flavour than the florets. We also used water as the liquid instead of vegetable stock—because the latter tends to darken and discolor the soup.
