Europe: Truffle Cauliflower Soup
The soup is quick and easy and has a delicate balance of flavors that are enhanced by the truffle oil added in. You can make this vegetarian by swapping the chicken broth for vegetable stock. You can also make this vegan, if you feel so inclined, by swapping out the butter and the milk for soy and olive oil.
Personally, I liked the blend of cream and soy milk (which I actually purchased by mistake and think this is the best place to use it up) which makes it a bit less heavy as well as a blend of olive oil and butter.
*for this recipe you’ll need a blender. I use the hand-held one and could not recommend it enough. Very much a worthwhile investment!
