Directions
This light soup has the perfect creamy consistency and a subtle vermouth note. In this recipe, I use only plant-based ingredients – cauliflower, vegetables, hazelnut milk, almond mousse, and vegetable stock. This way, I managed to achieve the perfect color, consistency, and taste. You can use almond milk, too, but the taste will be more neutral. That’s why I recommend using hazelnut milk in this recipe. Almond mouse contributes to the perfect creaminess in the texture.
And a few words about vermouth. You can use white wine instead or not use either. But if you want this soup to be more elegant, use dry vermouths like Martini Dry or Noilly Prat. Vermouth has a very complex blend of flavors that adds a delicate note to the soup.
Try following this recipe to bring a regular cauliflower soup to the whole new level.
Enjoy!
