Gratinated cauliflower soup, with carrots and red rice: Today I leave you a soup gluten free easy, vegetarian, colorful and flavorful. A riot of colors I would say: the spectacular green romanesco broccoli, Orange carrots, the red rice and white cheese. Is, not least, Prussian blue of cocotte! I confess that this cocotte (and the grey one you see behind) I fell in love, I bought it by the end of the evening I decided to prepare a dish to put on the table.
The cauliflower soup au gratin is a single dish containing vegetables, carbohydrates, protein and fat and I assure you that will satisfy you fully: for the gratin just use little or scamorza cheese like provolone unripened. The cheese must be fresh enough to melt while baking in the oven and create a nice crust after the gratin. I used a semi Primiero coarsely chopped. I do not recommend the mozzarella because it releases water. On the other hand, I have always been convinced that good cheese and a golden, crispy crust are able to do miracles. Freshly ground black pepper and everyone at the table: This soup is ready in less than 40 minutes. If you love hot soups, a perfect winter comfort food, have a look at all my SOUPS AND RECIPES and, Obviously, all my RECIPES WITH CAULIFLOWER. Have a good day!
