Creamy Cauliflower Goodness



In honor of the FRIGID temperatures in TN this week, I decided to make a big pot of soup. Tres domestique, non? Plus, this way I could give my new knives that Santa brought me a test run. (Note to self: these knives are inifinitely sharper than previous sets. Meaning that merely brushing the side of a finger against the edge can/will result in blood loss. Lesson learned).
One of my goals for this new year is to make a new dish at least once a month. Not just any dish, but something I never have come close to making in the past. Cauliflower soup certainly falls into that category.
Here's the recipe, from my beloved Pioneer Woman, who I got to meet last month. Yeah, I'm kind of a big deal.
I don't feel like typing the whole process out, since I should be working at the moment, but for the most part I stuck to the recipe. I wound up using one rather large head of cauliflower and it was perfectly chunky (sounds extremely unappetizing to phrase it that way). I used a little more salt, a little less chicken broth, and threw some freshly ground nutmeg in there for good measure. I think I have unresolved issues with authority that make me incapable of sticking to a recipe completely. Oh well. I can make good soup!
