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.

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.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

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.
Love this recipe sooo much! Definitely a winter favourite here. I often use a bit of Broccoli to make up the weight and maybe a bit more butter than listed 😅. And the bacon dust ..... yum!!!
My go to Cauliflower soup recipe. I don't do the Bacon dust, i just crumble cooked bacon on top. Freezes well.
Really love this soup
Yum!!!!
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.
Loved this soup, have made it a couple of times now. Even made some for my parents, my mum said it is the best Cauliflower soup she has ever tasted.
One word 'amazing' i wanted to lick the bowl.
Delicious
This is so delicious!! Even my husband who doesn't like soup for a meal said how good it was!!
I'm also going to have bacon dust on EVERYTHING now ... soooooo good!
I make this weekly in winter just to keep in the freezer for a quick lunch. Delicious recipe thanks for sharing 😋
