Creamy and mild, this simple curried soup is full of tender fall vegetables and the warming flavors of ginger and garlic.

I have made cauliflower every which way: I’ve blanched it, sautéed, boiled it, mashed it, deep-fried it, and eaten it raw. Until I read about it on eGullet.org, though, I never knew I could roast it.
