TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper and place bacon rashers onto it.
Bake for 20 minutes (200°C), or until very crispy. Lay out bacon on paper towel and ensure all liquid is absorbed. Allow bacon to cool and dry out.
Once cooled and dry, place bacon into mixing bowl and mill 20 sec/speed 9. Transfer into a bowl and set aside.
Place Parmesan into mixing bowl and grate 10 sec/speed 9. Transfer into a bowl and set aside.
Place water, stock paste, cauliflower, salt and pepper into mixing bowl and cook 20 min/100°C/speed 1.
Add butter or olive oil and cook 5 min/100°C/speed 1, then blend 1 min 30 sec/speed 5-9, increasing speed gradually.
Serve soup hot with reserved Parmesan cheese, topped with a sprinkle of bacon dust.

Lovely soup. Easy to whip up and extra yummy when dunking a cheesy puff in!
I sautéed an onion between grating the cheese and starting the soup for a richer flavour.
Next time I'll add the cheese to the soup before blitzing and more seasoning.

I made this and my husband and daughter loved it. I broke the bacon up and put it in the last 30 seconds of the blend. Will definately be in my fav. list. A great winter warmer with plenty left over to take to work lunch for several days.

Great soup, i only had 600g of cauliflower so then I used whites potatoes & a turnip.
added minced garlic & only put in 800g water. Soup turned out beautiful & thick.
also ended up only blending it for 30 seconds starting at speed 5 to speed 7.

TASTY SOUP!
Mum and I decided to have a thermo-day and try some different recipes. This was the soup we selected from the book/chip Everyday Cooking with Thermomix for Families. We followed the steps as directed and found the soup to be really tasty. Thank you for sharing.
Yes it was a little watery
Yes it was a little watery next time i will throw away some liquid before adding butter and blitzing.
otherwise quite nice
Great recipe. Thanks. My
Great recipe. Thanks. My variation was no bacon, 1-2 tbsp double cream instead of cheese, 1.5 tbsp veg stock, and 35 grams of butter. I didn't weight the cauliflower I just put one big cauliflower head in there and kept 900g of water. could reduce water next time as my version a little watery. Hit with hubby and kids.
