Method:

1. Melt the butter over low heat, and sauté the onion and celery in it until they're limp. Combine with the chicken broth and cauliflower in a large saucepan, and simmer until the cauliflower is tender.   

2. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the vegetables into a blender, and then pour in as much of the broth as will fit. Add the guar or xanthan (if using), and puree the ingredients.

3. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. Stir in the cream, and salt and pepper to taste.
