I got the recipe for this cream soup from a book entitled "Soup: superb ways with a classic dish", edited by Debra Mayhew. Its a great book with some interesting international style recipes. This recipe for walnut cream sounded good, so I decided to try it out. It was great!

CAULIFLOWER AND WALNUT CREAM SOUP

My husband and I were divorced after 10 years of marriage. He claimed that he was fond of making soup, so I gave him a soup cookbook one Christmas. He never made any of them. Then we got married again. (Long story). So the soup cookbook is back, too!! I'm purging my cookbook collection but this recipe always sounded so...
