Lunch: Cauliflower Soup with Anchovy Breadcrumb Topping
Ingredients
2 tablespoons EVOO
2 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 cups chicken stock
1 large head cauliflower, core removed with sharp utility or paring knife
2 cups whole milk
1 pound (1 large) starchy potato, peeled and chopped
Freshly grated nutmeg
A couple pinches cayenne pepper or ground red pepper
Instructions
Heat the EVOO in a soup pot over medium to medium-high heat. Melt the butter into the oil, then add the garlic, rosemary and onions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, partially covered, to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the wine and deglaze, then add about 1/2 cup stock and the whole head of cauliflower. Cover the pot and steam the cauliflower until very tender, about 15 minutes. Uncover and break up with a potato masher, then add the remaining stock, milk and potatoes. Season with a little nutmeg and cayenne, to taste. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, 10 minutes or so. Puree with an immersion blender, then simmer over low heat to thicken to desired consistency, and adjust seasonings. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
