Ingredients

  • tablespoon butter 
  • large head cauliflower chopped
  • tablespoons caviar 
  • cups chicken stock see light
  • 0.5 cup cup heavy whipping cream 
  • tablespoon olive oil 
  • 0.5  onion chopped
  • medium potatoes peeled chopped
  • servings pepper black freshly ground
  • large sorrel leaves shredded trimmed
  • cups milk whole

Equipment

  • food processor
  • frying pan
  • sauce pan
  • ladle
  • sieve
  • blender
  • immersion blender

Directions

  1. Place the cauliflower florets, potato, and onion in a saucepan with the butter and oil.
  2. Heat gently and, when the contents start to sizzle, cover with a lid and sweat everything over a low heat for about 10 minutes. The vegetables should not be at all colored.
  3. Add the stock and bring to a boil, then pour in the milk and return gently to a boil. (This way, there will be no scum forming in the milk.) Season to taste, then simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes when the vegetables should be soft.
  4. Pour in half the cream, then puree in a food processor or blender, or blend in the pan with an immersion blender. Pass the puree through a sieve into a clean pan, rubbing with the back of a ladle.
  5. Stir in the rest of the cream. Taste for seasoning and bring the soup to a boil. Ladle into soup plates, top with sorrel shreds, and add a spoonful of caviar to each.
  6. Serve.
