Cream of Cauliflower Soup with Onion and Smoked Paprika

Change language: Română

This cream of cauliflower soup with onion and smoked paprika is definitely a soup to remember! The perfect blend of textures, colors and flavors will surely please you too!

It’s been a pretty long time since I cooked with dairy. I rarely eat dairy products myself, but I must confess that I cook with cheese/butter/sour cream almost every time I have guests coming in. I keep the meals vegetarian of course, but I don’t want to scare them away by making a 100% vegan party. I think this is my way of luring them to the veg side! :)) I tempt them with vegetarian goodies and then, little by little, I show them the advantages of a vegan diet too.

Anyway, I made this cream of cauliflower soup a week ago and to my surprise, it turned out great! I was surprised because it was the first time I made cream of cauliflower soup and I usually find cauliflower’s taste a little bland. I’m glad that in this combo it is absolutely divine!

Smoked paprika is a spice I recently discovered and I’ve been using it ever since! I’ve heard of smoked paprika before of course, but I didn’t find it in local stores, up until a few weeks ago.

I will soon veganize this recipe by skipping dairy and using extra-virgin olive oil instead. I am curious to see if the overall taste will be the same. 🙂

So, here it is! Hope you’ll like it! 🙂

    Woah, the smoked paprika really changes the entire dish. I love it so much! I made it without the smoked paprika at first because I didn’t have any at home, but the second time I used it and it was 10x more delicious, even though the first one was delicious as well. Totally yummy! I’ll make it again soon!
