Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a vigorous boil. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Add the cauliflower, white wine, and bay leaves to the boiling broth. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer until the cauliflower is fork-tender. (10-15 minutes)

03

Step

While the cauliflower is cooking, in a separate bowl, combine the minced garlic, softened cream cheese, and diced Asiago cheese. Mix until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the cooked cauliflower to the cheese mixture. Reserve the broth in the pot. Remove and discard the bay leaves. (2 minutes)

05

Step

With a potato masher or an immersion blender, mash the cauliflower and cheese mixture until smooth and well combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Gradually stir the cauliflower mixture into the reserved broth until the soup reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Stir in the chopped fresh rosemary and thyme leaves. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. (1 minute)

08

Step

Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve hot, garnished with extra Asiago cheese and a sprig of rosemary, if desired.

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.
If you prefer a completely smooth soup, use an immersion blender to blend the soup directly in the pot before adding the herbs.
Consider adding a swirl of cream or a drizzle of truffle oil for an extra touch of luxury.
The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
