I rarely pre-cook ingredients. Everything has come out great.
No blender required. Blender actually just makes this recipe a pain in the butt. Ditch the water, use whole milk. Don’t add cauliflower until last 15 minutes of a 45 minute simmer. Soup tastes fantastic.
good low carb recipe! Will replace the water with cream !
