1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS
In a wide pot, sweat onion and garlic on medium heat until translucent, no more than a few minutes. Add the white cauliflower, cover with water and simmer until completely soft, about 20 minutes. Blend in batches for 30 seconds before streaming in extra virgin olive oil. Add salt, black pepper and white wine vinegar and taste for seasoning – chill in fridge until ready to serve.
For the garnish, heat olive oil, sauté cauliflower florets on medium heat until soft. Remove from pan, chill until ready to serve.
To assemble, spread cauliflower florets evenly between bowls before adding the soup. Sprinkle breadcrumbs, pea shoots on top and serve.
