Premium food for premium cooking lazy
Something that tastes so premium doesn't always have to be super elaborate. Cream of cauliflower soup (what a word) is actually a super quick recipe to make. Basically, all you have to do is throw everything in a pot, sauté it briefly, and then deglaze with broth. The delicious flavors from Levant are then provided by the herbs and spices. In addition to coriander and cumin, there is also a good dab of tahini, which gives the whole thing a wonderful nutty note. Freshly squeezed lemon juice with its fruity acidity provides a great balance of flavors.
Then the only thing missing is a crunchy topping! Simply roast a few walnuts briefly in a pan, chop them and you can spice up your cream of cauliflower soup with premium roasted flavors.
I used cream for the recipe. But you can also safely reach for the vegetable alternative if you don't tolerate lactose or don't want to use animal products. Either way, it will be premium delicious!
