CAULIFLOWER KEEPS THE EVIL PIXIES AWAY!
I guess that’s what they do. Or something very similar! We seem to have to have one in the fridge at all times anyway.
I can’t think of any other reason why we have to have one on call, slowly turning a weird kind of yellowy brown in the bottom of the fridge. But apparently it’s vital we have one. Even pointing out the fact that out of the 6 cauliflowers we’ve purchased in the last year we’ve thrown out 5 and a half didn’t stop one being added to the trolley in the supermarket….
What do you do with a cauliflower anyway?! I think it’s been almost decade since I cooked cauliflower cheese, or any of the more traditional cauliflower dishes. We’ve occasionally made a bit of a cauli curry, or cauli risotto that haven’t been too bad (especially the curry), but cauli hasn’t really been a kind of must have, store cupboard ingredient in my head at least.
But I’m determined that this one isn’t going to join the others in the great big rotting brassica heap in the sky. Or on the ground even. What it’s going to become I have no idea yet. I’ll try to remember to let you know. But in the meantime, if you have any great ideas, let me know. Please!
I tried feeding one of ours to the chickens today… even they weren’t impressed! I planted 4 this year and we did manage to eat two of them. Cauliflower cheese, cauliflower cheese and more cauliflower cheese!
You mentioned cauliflower risotto. We can highly recommend this one http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/risotto/cauliflower-risotto-risotto-ai-cavolfior
Hard to beat a good cauliflower cheese though!
Do you know what? I think it was that exact recipe we used. I remember the anchovies and chilli.
Hmm. Maybe we’ll have to give it another go with the (currently) white blob sitting in the fridge…
