Notes

  • Cut the cauliflower into bite size pieces for quick even cooking.
  • The liquid does not have to cover the cauliflower in the pressure cooker. No worries, you'll end up with soup.
  • If you like your soup a little bit more chunky, you do not have to blend until it is completely smooth.
  • You can serve this soup with a baked potato, crusty bread, salad or any lighter dish. It's a thick and hearty soup and you probably want it to stand alone as the main dish for your dinner.
