Cauliflower Soup

This is a really yummy new recipe that we tried tonight. We had it with some homemade French Bread and a salad! It was a hit!


Cauliflower Soup
1 medium cauliflower
3 tbs butter
3 tbs flour
3 tbs cream or half and half
1 quart chicken stock
3 egg yolks, well beaten
Salt and pepper to taste

Discard leaves from cauliflower, separate into flowers,
cook 10 minutes in boiling water. Drain, set aside. Melt
butter, add flour and cook until brown, add chicken stock
slowly stir until thick and smooth. Add cauliflower.
Simmer until soft enough to mash. Puree in blender,
season with salt and pepper. Return to pan and to a boil.
Combine cream and egg yolks, blend slowly stirring
constantly into hot mixture.

Serves 6.
