Time 1h

Yield 7 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 small head cauliflower, florets chopped
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups grated white cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon dry sherry
Freshly grated nutmeg
Cheese straws, for serving

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until they start softening, about 4 minutes. Add the cauliflower, bay leaf, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the cauliflower starts browning, 5 minutes. Stir in the flour until absorbed, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and milk; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat; simmer until the cauliflower is tender, 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf.

  • Add the sherry; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve with cheese straws.
