Ingredients

4 tablespoons salted butter
1 large onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
8 cups chicken broth
1 large head cauliflower, cored and cut into small florets
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 cups 2% milk
½ cup half-and-half
¼ cup sour cream
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and garlic; saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Add potatoes and parsley, then pour in chicken broth. Add cauliflower and thyme; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until cauliflower and potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. Remove from the stove and let cool for 15 minutes.
Process 2 cups soup at a time in a food processor until smooth; return to the pot. Add milk, half-and-half, and cream; whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Add Cheddar cheese and cook over low heat until cheese is melted and soup is hot, about 5 minutes longer.

Cook's Note:

You can use 1 teaspoon dried thyme in place of 1 tablespoon fresh.
