"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Directions:
In a large pot, heat olive oil and 2 tbsp of butter, over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cauliflower florets and stir. Add celery, onion, and thyme, and cook for 3 minutes. Push the vegetables to one side and add 1 more tbsp of butter. Add the flour to the butter and cook for 1 minute, stirring the flour in the butter. Mix in the chicken broth and half-and-half. Bring to a simmer and cook 15 minutes. Puree soup in blender or foor processor, and return to pot. (I like it on the chunky side.) Check seasoning and add hot sauce, if desired.

One of my all time favorite soups, it’s so so Good. I'm not kidding! I like it so much I don't even mind hauling the soup out of the pot, puree-ing it, and then getting it back into the pot.
