x

1 Head cauliflower - large
-(about 2 lbs.), cored and Separated into florets 2 tb White wine vinegar - OR
-cider vinegar 4 Clove garlic - minced
1/2 ts Crushed hot red pepper
1/4 c Olive oil
4 c Vegetable Broth - hot (see
-recipe) OR canned Low-sodium chicken broth 2 ts Salt
1/3 c Parsley - flat-leaf, freshly
-chopped Number of Servings: 6 Pecorino cheese - freshly grated 1. Trim the stems from the cauliflower florets and cut them into 1/2 inch
pieces, then break the florets into 1/2-inch pieces. Fill a large bowl with 2 quarts of cold water and stir in the vinegar. Add the cauliflower pieces and stir to clean thoroughly. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Drop the cauliflower into the boiling water, return to a boil and cook over moderately high heat until just tender, about 4 minutes. Drain the cauliflower thoroughly. 2. In a large saucepan, cook the garlic and hot red pepper in the olive
oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is golden, about 3 minutes. Add the cauliflower and cook for 5 minutes, stirring to prevent it from browning. Stir in the hot Vegetable Broth, salt and parsley. 3. Using a slotted spoon, remove 1 cup of the cooked cauliflower from the
soup and puree it in a blender or food processor until smooth. Return it to the soup, increase the heat to moderate and heat through. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle on a generous amount of cheese. NOTE: Make this soup as garlicky and spicy as you like and serve with lots of crusty Italian bread. Serves 6.
