Steps:
- Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
- Add cauliflower, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until vegetables start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
- Add ginger, turmeric, saffron and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
- Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
- Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large wide pot or medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the cauliflower and curry powder and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until the cauliflower is well coated in spice and slightly softened, about 5 minutes more. Add the broth and 2 1/2 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the cauliflower is very tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
- Puree the soup in the pot with an immersion blender or, working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth, being careful not to fill the carafe more than half full per batch (keep the lid cracked to allow steam to escape). Rewarm the soup over medium heat and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Ladle into 4 bowls and sprinkle with some cilantro and chopped cashews.
GINGER-CAULIFLOWER SOUP
This simple soup, steeped with ginger and lemongrass, features a bright relish of lime zest, fresh ginger and scallions. The topping offsets the subtle, sensible cauliflower, and the soup is deceptively luxurious thanks to the addition of potato, which adds a natural creaminess. Serve with a crusty sourdough loaf or some thick slices of buttered toast.

Steps:
- In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the lemongrass and half the ginger and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, potato and garlic, then add the stock. Bring to a boil over high, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon ginger with the scallions, cilantro, vinegar, lime zest and juice, honey and the remaining 1/4 cup grapeseed oil. Whisk together and season with salt. Set aside. The relish will marinate and the scallions soften as it sits.
- Remove and discard the lemongrass stalk from the soup. Using an immersion blender (or working in batches in a traditional blender), purée the soup until smooth. Add additional water, if needed, to thin the soup. Season to taste with salt.
- Serve the soup topped with the ginger-scallion relish, and serve with a slice of buttered toast.

- Serve hot sprinkled with the parsley and a few grinds of pepper.
