Best Ginger Cauliflower Soup Recipes

CREAMY CAULIFLOWER WITH GINGER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
• Add cauliflower, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until vegetables start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add ginger, turmeric, saffron and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
• Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
• Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

EASY CAULIFLOWER SOUP WITH FRESH GINGER

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir onion until fragrant, 1 minute. Add cauliflower and cover. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender, 10 minutes. Add chicken stock, ginger, and salt; season with black pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer until cauliflower is tender, 30 minutes. Cool slightly.
• Pour soup into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth. Return to pot and warm over low heat. Serve immediately.

GINGER-CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the lemongrass and half the ginger and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, potato and garlic, then add the stock. Bring to a boil over high, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon ginger with the scallions, cilantro, vinegar, lime zest and juice, honey and the remaining 1/4 cup grapeseed oil. Whisk together and season with salt. Set aside. The relish will marinate and the scallions soften as it sits.
• Remove and discard the lemongrass stalk from the soup. Using an immersion blender (or working in batches in a traditional blender), purée the soup until smooth. Add additional water, if needed, to thin the soup. Season to taste with salt.
• Serve the soup topped with the ginger-scallion relish, and serve with a slice of buttered toast.

CAULIFLOWER RED LENTIL & GINGER SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium soup pot on medium heat, sauté the onions in oil until translucent.
• Add the ginger, garlic, cumin, red pepper, and turmeric and sauté for 2 minutes; stir constantly to avoid sticking.
• Add the stock, cauliflower, tomatoes, and lentils.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce heat.
• Cover with lid and simmer for 1 minutes or until veggies and lentils are cooked.
• Stir in the cilantro and salt, remove from heat, and let sit 5 minutes before serving.

CAULIFLOWER, LEEK AND GINGER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the potato, ginger, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and 1 1/2 cups water and bring to a simmer.
• Add the cauliflower and garlic and simmer until the potatoes, cauliflower and garlic are tender, about 20 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Remove from the heat, and let cool at least 5 minutes. Remove and discard the rosemary and carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill blender more than halfway full).
• Add the cream and reheat the soup if necessary. Adjust the consistency with water and seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Serve hot sprinkled with the parsley and a few grinds of pepper.
