10 Reviews of Mom's Excellent Creamy Cauliflower Soup

by rwwest

From: Cathy in Ontario

On May 18, 2002

This is a very nice soup, and doesn't take long to make....about 50 minutes from begining to end, because of preparing the ingredients. I did not have the banana pepper or the red pepper flakes, so I used Tobasco sauce....just a bit, because I don't like too much heat. The next time I make it though...I think I will double the recipe, because it tastes even better the next day! I also used about twice the amount of caraway seed. It is what really makes this soup, I think. I also used a potato masher to mash up some of the ingredients before serving. Cathy in Ontario.

    This was excellent ! I used 5 cups cauliflower (instead of the 2 cups in the recipe)since I had a large head of cauliflower and added 2 cups of water to compensate for the extra cauliflower. My recipe made 14 one-cup servings.

    Great recipe. Like others, I blended a good deal of it and left some chunks. I hate evaporated milk so used ordinary.

    excellent soup. I blended it before adding the cheese, used low fat cheddar and didn't have any caraway, it was still yummy and velvety.

    Wonderful. Based on what I had in my cupboards I subsituted skim milk for evaporated,a chopped jalapeno for the bannana pepper, and used only grated old cheddar cheese. I also added extra spices (especially the caraway). Great for a week night dinner or for company.

    pureed but left some cauliflower chunky; would not use the cheddar next time as it becomes stringy

    I loved this soup and my family too! I think the dill and carway give it the best flavor ever! I give this 5 stars! Yummy!

    This was definitely good. Didn't have the wow I was looking for but maybe that's because I didn't have the caraway. Next time I will puree some of the veggies like the other reviewers suggested to give a creamier texture. Used soy milk in place of evaporated and a vegan cheese spread in place of cheddar. Kids inhaled it though, and it was a very filling meal so I will make it again.

    Made the soup, doubling everything since I had two small heads cauliflower, and gave hubby the obtion of creamed or not. He chose not and added shredded chedder to the bowl instead of to the soup. Was very tasty. Think I'll cream the leftovers and serve over chicken breasts.
