How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat an Instant Pot on the Saute setting until it says HOT. Add in butter and swirl it around with a spoon to coat. Add in the diced white onion and cook until the onion is translucent, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add a pinch of salt and stir well.
Step 2
Add in the cream cheese and the vegetable broth. Use a whisk to combine the cream cheese into the broth. Make sure the cream cheese is completely melted before adding the rest of the ingredients.
Step 3
Add in the heavy cream, water, pink sea salt, and cauliflower florets. Set the Instant Pot on high pressure for 2 minutes, making sure the vent is sealed.
Step 4
Once the time has passed, release the pressure. Remove the lid and puree the soup using a stick blender. Alternatively, you can transfer the hot soup to a blender. Be sure to use a towel placed on top of the blender lid to ensure the hot contents do not splash out. Taste the soup and adjust adding more salt if desired. Top the finished soup with chopped chives and freshly cracked pepper.
