Ever since I first saw purple cauliflower on a cooking competition show, I've wanted to make a soup from them. Unfortunately, I have yet to find any. I have used orange cauliflower, but that color eluded me. Likewise, no purple potatoes, though I have found purple carrots. Then, my What's Your...

Similar to my other cauliflower soups, but with ras el hanout as the main seasoning (this is the "Moroccan" in the recipe...I don't know if this is actually eaten in Morocco), and topped with sauteed mushrooms. I used baby bellas, but any mushroom should work.
Also, note that I use a pressure...
This soup is all about the mushrooms...the portabella flavor really comes through here. NOTE: the "baby bellas" are small portabella mushrooms that are about the size of white mushrooms. I mostly use these because I wanted to have slices of mushrooms as well as mushrooms in the liquid.
By the...
I used to call this a light Thai coconut soup because I make it with light coconut milk. I really can't tell the difference. But, putting light first in the name detracts from that fact, so I'm leaving it out. One of the foundations of this recipe is the creation of the stock. If you're pressed...
I made this using a New York Times Cooking recipe as a basis, but assembled it with expiring food from my refrigerator. I had boiled the corn 3 days earlier; the potatoes were starting to form sprouts because they'd been on the shelf a bit too long. I would have used half-and-half, but that had...

After seeing 2 gorgeous violet carrot récipes ( Morning Glory & My Pinch of Italy), I had recalled that I had seen some Violet - Orchid colored Cauliflower in the La Mercat de La Boqueria and I had become inspired to create a non dairy creamed soup

The Vegetarian version has often been eaten during Lent for centuries in the rural countryside. The version, I prepare...
I read somewhere that it's a good idea to make things without a recipe at times. While I like to pride myself on mostly making only things I invent, I typically document what I'm doing when I'm making it, in case I want to do it again. But, I've recently decided to make at least one meal a week...

I've been trying to make things that are less elaborate, and to cook based on instinct more than needing to craft a perfect recipe. What I made here was pretty easy, and I would have had everything I needed without consulting any recipe, but I did decide to skim through a few while I was making...
This recipe is based on a ‘remembered soup' mentioned by @Ken Natton in another thread (see here). Of course, I have no idea whether my creation resembles the original but it is a very good soup!
The flavour of mushrooms is helped by a splash of alcohol and I used brandy. But you could use...
