Instructions
In a slow cooker set to high, gently place the following ingredients - onion, carrots, garlic, ginger, cauliflower, bay leaves, thyme bunch, salt, pepper and chicken stock.
Let the cooker work its magic for at least 4 hours.At the 4-hour mark, add in the mushrooms into the slow cooker.At the same time, make the bchamel sauce: Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium heat. Stir in the flour until dissolved and cook a couple of minutes until the mixture has turned a light beige in color.
Whisk in the goat milk, cheese, nutmeg, salt and white pepper. Continue to stir for about 5 minutes while the mixture thickens.
Remove the thyme bunch and bay leaves from the soup. Stir the bchamel sauce into the soup. (At this point, I poured the contents of my slow cooker into a pot on the stove, set to medium heat, and stirred in the bchamel sauce. My slow cooker was too tiny to hold everything, but yours may be large enough for everything.)
Add the chopped parsley and taste to ensure the seasoning is to your taste.
Add additional salt and pepper as needed.
Serve in deep bowls with a little toasted bread and a drizzle of your best extra virgin olive oil.
