In Support of Cauliflower
My sweet wife recently listed cauliflower among the things she "cannot abide". Said it tastes like cardboard. Well, I feel like I should stand up for cauliflower. I used to think it was a somewhat tasteless waste of food space, but I actually like it now. Here are my favorite ways to eat it.
1) Fried. I know, just about every vegetable tastes better fried. But one day at the cafeteria at the Memorial Student Center at TAMU back about 23 years ago, I ate some fried cauliflower covered in melted cheese. And I never looked back.
2) Steamed. Especially when mixed with brocolli with a hint of butter and garlic. And topped with some grated parmesian cheese.
3) Chopped. With chopped brocolli and other fresh ingredients that I can't think of now along with some kind of dressing that ties it all together that I also can't think of now.
