The Elegance of Cauliflower: White Gold from the Garden
Cauliflower is the aristocrat among the cabbage varieties - elegantly white, subtle in flavor and incredibly versatile. This compact ‘flower’ of white florets is actually an immature inflorescence, which when harvested at the perfect moment yields a culinary treasure.
🥬 Perfect Cauliflower Harvest
Look for cauliflower that is:
- Compact and firm with tightly packed florets
- White or cream colored without brown spots
- Surrounded by fresh green leaves
- Feels heavy for its size
Harvest the entire head by cutting the stem under the leaves. Leave some leaves attached - they protect the cauliflower.
🧊 Storage: 1 Week Optimally Fresh
Store in the refrigerator, wrapped in damp paper towels. Use within a week for best flavor and texture.
