The taste of the vinegar didn't come through at all in the soup (even after forgetting and soaking the cauliflower all afternoon). It just did its job of keeping the cauliflower white. As for the bland taste of cauliflower soup, it was on the subtle side. Enjoyable, though. I would add a bit of ham or cheese to boost the flavor, but I enjoyed it on its own too.<br /><br />Thanks to all who dropped by and left a comment! :)<br /><br />~ShariShari@Whisk: a food bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02629153433211927066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6947422983613362681.post-77027538104406170992009-07-24T08:02:05.544-04:002009-07-24T08:02:05.544-04:00This looks so unbelievably smooth, like molten whi...This looks so unbelievably smooth, like molten white chocolate.<br /><br />Do you find that the sharpness from the vinegar comes through at all?
