Cauliflower Soup

After you have boiled a cauliflower, it is a great extravagance to throw away the liquor; it is delicately flavored and forms the basis of a good soup. Wash well your cauliflower, taking great care to remove all grit and insects. Place it to simmer with its head downwards, in salted water; and, when it is tender, remove it. Now for the soup. Let all the outer leaves and odd bits simmer well, then pass them through a sieve.

- This dip is easy to prepare ahead of time, and will keep in the refrigerator, providing nutritious snacks and appetizers, for a week (if it lasts that long). As with most bean dips/ pates, this also freezes well so I like to make large batches for use over one or more months.
