Cauliflower is sweet in taste and neutral in temperature enters the Spleen, Kidney and Stomach channels to strengthen the body and lubricate the intestines. This soup is very easily digestible and can help with debilitated weakness, especially after a bad cold or illness. Roasted Cauliflower Soup1 head cauliflower
