Servings: persons

1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 head cauliflower, separated into florets
1 tablespoon fresh thyme (leaves only)
5 cups vegetable stock or 5 cups chicken stock (homemade or low sodium)
1 cup 10% cream or 1 cup carnation 2% evaporated milk
½ teaspoon dry mustard
1 ½ tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 ½ cups of extra old white cheddar cheese

1
In large pot over medium heat, saute onion, celery and carrot in olive oil until onion is translucent.
2
Add cauliflower and thyme to pot and pour in the stock.
3
Cover and bring to boil.
4
Reduce heat to medium and cook until cauliflower is tender.
5
Remove pot from heat.
6
Working in batches, puree the mixture in a food processor or blender and return to the pot (I prefer it slightly chunky).
7
Reduce heat to low and whisk in the cream, dry mustard, Dijon and cheddar.
8
Heat thoroughly but do not let the soup boil.
9
If you find the soup a bit thick at this point, add a little stock or water.

Add salt (if necessary) and pepper.

Serve.

A pleasant variation: Substitute 1 cup of thinly sliced leeks for the onion and 1 1/2 cups of crumbled Stilton for the cheddar; add 3 tablespoons of Tawny port and garnish with freshly chopped chives.
