Romig zonder room, room deluxe

The start of a new decade is a great incentive to push the restart button on your health and eating habits. Many of us make a resolution to do so on Jan. 1, but sticking to that resolution can be a tricky thing…especially when we’re bombarded by a plethora of Valentine’s Day treats a month later. An easy, fun way to "lighten up" and incorporate more plant-based foods into your diet is to use the Happy Whip ” brand cream dispenser to inject texture and aeration into your favorite vegetarian or vegan recipes–like this delicious nut milk-based Frothy Vegan Cauliflower Soup. It’s so packed with umami flavor from the porcini mushroom powder and nutritional yeast you won’t even miss the parmesan cheese or cream.  

Schuimige veganistische bloemkoolsoep

Opbrengst: ongeveer 6-8 porties

2 eetlepels olijfolie

¼ kopje fijngesneden ui

225 gram bloemkoolroosjes, grof gehakt

1 grote teen knoflook, fijngehakt

1 laurierblad

1 takje verse tijm

2 eetlepels droge witte wijn of vermout

1 kopje groentebouillon met weinig natrium

½ tl gemalen zwarte peper

1 tl koosjer zout

1 tl porcini-paddenstoelenpoeder* snufje nootmuskaat

1 kopje amandel- of cashewnotenmelk

1 tl voedingsgist 

1. Saute the onion in olive oil until translucent, then add the cauliflower, garlic, bay leaf, thyme, black pepper, salt, porcini powder, and nutmeg.  Continue to saute for about 1 min., then add the wine and stock. Simmer mixture for about 4-5 mins., then remove the bay leaf and thyme stem. Stir in the nut milk and nutritional yeast.

2. Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture into a blender and puree until very smooth.  Strain the mixture through funnel/strainer into a .5 ltr Happy Whip It! stainless steel cream dispenser.  Secure the head fitted with a plain tip, then screw on one N2O charger. Vigorously shake the dispenser (about 13 times) to disperse the gas. 

3.Dispense the soup into cappuccino cups.  Garnish each portion with a tiny pinch of fresh microgroenten of gehakte kruiden en een snufje porcinipoeder.
