==Ingredients==
*3 Tbsp unsalted butter, divided
*1 onion, thinly sliced
*1 head cauliflower, broken into small florets
*salt and pepper
*1/2 Tbsp minced garlic
*1 quart (4 cups) chicken broth
*bouquet garni (3 Italian parsley springs, 1 tarragon spring, 3 thyme springs, 1 bay leaf)
*1/4 lb grated Gruyere cheese
*3/4 c heavy cream

==Directions==
#Melt 2 Tbsp butter in a large saucepan and cook the onion slowly until soft and translucent but not browned.
#Add the cauliflower, lightly season with salt and pepper, and cook over a low flame for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
#Add the remaining 1 Tbsp butter.
#Add the garlic and cook for 5 more minutes, allowing the mixture to lightly brown.
#Add the stock and bouquet garni and bring the mixture to a boil. Once the soup has come to a rolling boil reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes.
#Remove the bouquet garni.
#Puree the soup, slowly adding the Gruyere. Add the cream up to about 3/4 c to the desired thickness. Adjust the seasoning.

==Notes==
We make this pretty frequently and usually use beef broth or veggie broth instead of chicken, just because that's what we've had on hand (and it's really good with beef broth). I think this recipe really wants to make a white soup (calls for white pepper, etc), but we never bother with that. We've also made it with romanesco and the flavor is similar. Giles really loves this. :)
