Ingredients:

about 2 cups chopped cauliflower

1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar, at the end (especially if you made yours too spicy like I did).

2 cloves of garlic

2-3 leeks, white and very light green parts, chopped (about 1 to 1.5 cups)

tablespoon of lemon

leaves from 3 sprigs of marjoram or thyme

1.5 teaspoons miso paste (or just salt if you don't have any)

2 tablespoons more olive oil (to blend into the soup)

olive oil, for drizzling

1/2 cup raw, unsalted, un-roasted cashews, soaked overnight* (see note)

3 more pinches of salt

1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika (or more to taste)

3 cups of water

Equipment:

oven

baking sheet

blender

sauce pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spread cauliflower, leeks and garlic on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt & pepper. Roast for 20-30 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove when everything is starting to turn golden, but before the leeks are burning (if a few get too charred, it's ok, just pick them out later).Add to your blender (a Vitamix ideally), the veggies you just roasted, drained cashews, marjoram leaves, miso paste, a squeeze of lemon and half the water (1.5 cups). Blend until pureed. Add olive oil, paprika, and the rest of the water. Blend again. Taste and adjust seasonings.Pour into a medium saucepan and heat just until it's warm.

VIRUS WARNING**** If you received an e-mail with a subject line of "Badtimes," delete it immediately without reading it! It is the most dangerous E-mail virus yet. It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles. It will demagnitize the strips on all your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access codes, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you try to play. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your beer and leave your dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company coming over. It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere with your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in traffic. Badtimes will make you fall in love with a hardened pedophile. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. Badtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up and leave the hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattress and pillows, it will refill your skim milk with whole. It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. These are just a few of the signs. BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!
