Growing up in a Chinese family, dinner would always end with a big bowl of soup. But I was never a big fan of soup and too impatient to wait for the soup to cool to a drinkable temperature, would often leave the bowl sitting out for so long a membrane of fat would form on top of it.
Ever since I moved to the States, my mom has been urging me to make soup for myself. And this past weekend, I finally heeded her advice and followed this recipe for a hearty, rich, cumin cauliflower soup paired with a side of focaccia and oozing raclette. The perfect cure for a cold winter's night or a dreary rainy Sunday.
The best part about this? Another meatless meal!
Tip - Have leftover soup? Pour into an ice tray and freeze into cubes for later use. (This is best for storing stock to use at a later date).
