A rich wonderful soup, perfect for the time between winter and spring. Roasting the cauliflower enhances its naturally nutty flavor, which pairs extremely well with the caramelized leeks. It’s wonderfully creamy without a lick of milk or cream. The Meyer lemons and briny capers add a ray of brightness to every bowl. Easy to make a vegan/vegetarian version, too!
