Dish
Crème Dubarry
Cauliflower soup
Crème Dubarry is made by simmering cauliflower with onions, garlic, and vegetable broth until tender. The mixture is then pureed until smooth and finished with heavy cream. The soup is typically garnished with fresh chives or parsley.
Origins and history
Crème Dubarry is named after Madame Dubarry, the mistress of King Louis XV. It is believed that the soup was one of her favorite dishes and was often served at the royal court.
Dietary considerations
Crème Dubarry is suitable for lacto-vegetarians but not for vegans due to the use of heavy cream. It is naturally gluten-free. It contains dairy and may contain traces of nuts.
Variations
Variations of Crème Dubarry can include the addition of other vegetables such as leeks or potatoes. The soup can also be finished with a drizzle of truffle oil for added flavor.
Presentation and garnishing
To make the soup extra creamy, use a blender or immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth. Be sure to add the cream slowly to avoid curdling. Garnish with fresh chives or parsley for added flavor and color.
Tips & Tricks
For a vegan version of this soup, substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream or cashew cream. To make the soup more filling, add some cooked rice or quinoa to the soup before serving.
Side-dishes
A crusty baguette or a simple salad of mixed greens would complement the flavors of Crème Dubarry. A light white wine such as a Chardonnay would also pair well with the soup.
Drink pairings
Crème Dubarry pairs well with a light white wine such as a Chardonnay or a Pinot Grigio. It can also be served with a sparkling water or a light beer.
