Tips for Making This Soup

This soup is mild and creamy; if you prefer a spicy soup, add crushed red pepper flakes to the broth.

This soup is hearty enough, but serving it with warm rolls and butter will make it even more filling and delicious.

Because this soup has milk, stir it often to prevent the milk from scalding.

Flavor Variations

• Spice: Add some crushed red pepper to the broth. If you are roasting the cauliflower, you can add cayenne pepper to the olive oil for tossing.
• Starch: I think rice would be a delicious addition to this soup—Parboil long-grain rice by cooking it in water for bout 15 minutes. Add the partially cooked rice with the broth and cook for 12-15 minutes.
• Meat: Add the cooked chicken along with the broth
