    Notes

    How to Store & Re-Heat
    To store: Let the soup cool to room temperature before transferring it to an airtight container. The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to three months.
    To reheat: Transfer it to a saucepan over medium-low heat or in a microwave-safe container.
    Stir the soup occasionally until it is heated through. If the soup has become too thick, add a splash of water or broth to thin it out. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Remember that the Cauliflower soup's texture may change slightly upon reheating, especially if it has been frozen, but this can be remedied by adding a splash of cream or milk to the soup while reheating. Be careful not to overheat the soup, which can cause it to lose flavor and nutrients.
    Make-Ahead
    Making Spicy Curried Cauliflower Soup ahead of time can save time and make meal planning easier. To make ahead, cook the Cauliflower soup according to the recipe instructions and let it cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the fridge for three days or in the freezer for three months. When you're ready to serve the soup, reheat it on the stove or microwave, occasionally stirring until heated.
    You could add a splash of water or broth if the soup has thickened during storage. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper till the desired amount. You can also freeze the soup in portions, taking out only what you need for a quick meal. 
    How to Freeze
    I don't recommend it; it is due to the cream affecting the recipe.
