I have been vegan for over ten years and cooking vegan food became my specialty, vegan soup recipes especially.
One rainy day back in November 2009 I made the best vegan soup recipe I could come up with, which was easy because most vegans make great soup chefs.
Soup making started out as a hobby that I only did on weekends when I had the time, but soon enough word got around, and people would come to me looking for advice and recipes or just want to hang out in the kitchen whilst I cooked.
In fact, they loved the gatherings so much that they wanted me to open up an entire shop dedicated to soup! Which of course, I declined.
Last week, I opened the fridge and there in front of me were three cauliflowers! Three? I pondered a while, curry or soup? Then on autopilot came cauliflower soup.
I have to admit it was one of the best soups I’ve ever made and I’m going to share the recipe with you.
I didn’t have to work so hard to make the perfect vegan cauliflower soup recipe so I don’t suppose it will be too difficult for anyone reading this to follow either.
