Cook the cauliflower in salted water until soft but not mushy. Drain and reserve 1 cup of the water. Saute butter and chopped onion in a large sauce pan until the onion is translucent but not browned. Blend 1/4 cup flour into the onions and stir to combined. Add milk, chicken stock, 1 cup of cooking water, Worcestershire sauce, and cauliflower. Simmer until the soup thickens. Adjust the seasoning and add cheese if using.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I sometimes make a combination of cauliflower and potato soup. I also sometimes add a little kernel corn to the potato soup. We like our soup chunky but you can puree the soup or part of it for a smoother texture. Mom made her potato soup with all 2 % milk and no beef stock. Mom always served the potato soup with a small dab of butter on the top of each bowl and with chili sauce to add at the table.
