Ingredients

  • 1 cauliflower

Preparation

Step 1

To remove core and leaves - With a large knife, slice through the stem end close to the base of the head to remove the leaves. With a thin knife, cut around the core as close as possible to the florets to remove the core and tough stem ends in one piece.

To separate into florets - Core as described above, then break off the florets individually by hand.

To cook - Cook cauliflower quickly. To speed cooking time, divide the head into small florets. Florets can be boiled, steamed or cooked in a microwave oven on high power. With either method, it takes about 5 minute to cook a pound of cauliflower florets to tenderness.
