Instructions

1

Simmer the Cauliflower

Add cauliflower florets and chicken broth to a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes until the cauliflower is completely fork-tender.

2

Blend Until Smooth

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until completely smooth and velvety. Alternatively transfer in batches to a countertop blender being careful with the hot liquid.

3

Add Cream and Cheese

Return the blended soup to low heat and stir in the heavy cream. Gradually add shredded cheddar cheese a handful at a time stirring constantly until fully melted and incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.

Common mistakes

Adding cheese to soup that is too hot and boiling which causes it to become stringy and clumped
Under-cooking the cauliflower before blending which results in a grainy texture instead of a smooth soup
