Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup Recipes

VEGAN ROASTED CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Soak cashews for a couple of hours or boil them for 15 minutes in water until they are soft.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
• Cut the cauliflower into florets, spread them on a baking tray (optionally lined with parchment paper), and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and a little salt. Toss with your hands and roast the cauliflower in the oven for about 30-35 minutes until nicely browned and tender. Set aside a few cauliflower florets for garnish.
• In a blender, combine all ingredients (add the broth & milk in batches if necessary) and blend until completely smooth.
• Taste the soup and adjust seasonings. If you prefer a spicy soup, add some red pepper flakes!
• If the cauliflower soup is too thick (it does get thicker as it sits), add a little bit more broth or plant-based milk and blend again.
• Transfer it to a pot and heat it until it's warm. Also, taste it and add more spices, if desired.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and the reserved cauliflower florets. Enjoy!

CREAMY VEGAN CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Place the whole head of garlic unpeeled in an oven at 200 C / 400 F for about 30 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
• In a large saucepan fry the leek in a little olive oil until soft. (About 3 minutes).
• Add in the cauliflower and stir for a couple of minutes until well coated.
• Squeeze in the roasted garlic pulp.
• Cover with the vegetable broth. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to a medium flame, and simmer partially covered for about 30 minutes until the cauliflower is soft. I like to stir frequently and mash the cauliflower with the spoon as it cooks to make it easier to blend.
• Let the mixture cool enough to put batches in the blender, and puree with the cashews until smooth and creamy.
• Transfer to a clean pot and heat on low to serve. Season with Celtic salt to taste.
• To serve - top each bowl with a grain ball and a generous sprinkle of chives.

VEGAN CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Start by prepping the onion and garlic. Cut the cauliflower into florets, they can be on the large side as you can break it down as it cooks.
• In a heavy bottom pan, heat the butter over medium heat, add the onion and saute for 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
• Add the cauliflower, thyme, salt and pepper, and water/broth.
• Bring the chunky soup to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until cauliflower is fork tender.
• Stir in the vegan cream or plant milk and lemon juice.
• Once soup is done, let rest for 10 minutes to cool. Using an immersion blender or cup blender, puree the soup until desired consistency. Season with more salt & pepper as needed. Heat over low until warmed through as needed.
• Serve with a few reserved toasted cauliflower pieces, drizzle of vegan cream and/or fresh cracked pepper. For a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or crushed mustard seeds. Pair with homemade Artisan Bread or soft and chewy Vegan Naan for soaking up the juices.
• Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 days in a covered container. To store longer, freeze for up to 2 - 3 months.
