Cauliflower is related to broccoli and we\u2019ll see them around the same times of the season.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Storage and Handling:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Store Cauliflower in a loosely closed, dry plastic bag for 3 to 5 days.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To prepare cauliflower, start by cutting\/peeling away the leaves on the bottom of the head.\u00a0 <\/span>Turn the head upside down and use a sharp knife to carefully cut\/core out the thick stalk in the middle.\u00a0 <\/span>Many of the florets will fall away; the rest can be pulled or cut away from the head.\u00a0 <\/span>Cut the florets into about the same size pieces to ensure even cooking.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Culinary Uses:<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Cauliflower can be eaten raw with dip, added to a fresh salad, steamed, boiled, roasted, saut\u00e9ed, baked into gratins, cooked into soups and stews and can be added to your favorite stir-fries.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Freezing Method:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Cauliflower freezes really well for a nice treat in the deep of winter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Rinse your cauliflower and cut into the size pieces you want to freeze.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Bring a large pot of water to boil.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Submerge as much broccoli as will fit in the pot, make sure all the cauliflower is covered by water.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Blanch in boiling water for about 1 minute and then immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking and cool the cauliflower.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Once the cauliflower is cool, allow it to drain out all the excess water.\u00a0 <\/span>I like to spin it in my salad spinner. Fill freezer bags with your cauliflower; remove as much air as possible, seal and store in your freezer for up to a year.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
