6 Cloves Garlic

2 tablespoons Olive Oil

2 Cans Chicken Broth*

Kosher Salt

Fresh Ground Black Pepper

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Farenheit. Spread chopped cauliflower, leeks and garlic on baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil on vegetables and mix well to thoroughly coat. Sprinkle with kosher salt. Roast in oven for 40-45 minutes. Vegetables should be brown on edges and slightly softened. Pour roasted vegetables into a saucepan and add 2 cans of chicken broth and fresh ground pepper to taste. Over medium high heat, heat vegetables and broth until it bubbles. Using an immersion blender (stick blender), thoroughly puree all contents of the saucepan. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a regular blender. Just be careful putting hot liquids in a blender as they can cause the lid to come flying off sending your yummy soup all over your kitchen. (You can vent the lid a little to help reduce the chance of this happening.)

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
