About Cauliflower, frozen, unprepared

Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) is a cruciferous vegetable grown for its dense, creamy-white head, or curd, which is actually a tightly packed cluster of undeveloped flower buds. A close cousin of broccoli, cabbage, and kale, it has a mild, faintly nutty flavor that turns sweet, golden, and lightly caramelized when roasted. Low in carbohydrates and calories yet rich in fiber, folate, vitamin C, and antioxidant plant compounds, it has become a favorite stand-in for grains and starches, riced for stir-fries, mashed like potatoes, blitzed into soup, or pressed into a gluten-free pizza crust.

It is every bit as good simply roasted, steamed, grilled, fried into fritters, or served raw with dip. Beyond the familiar white, you will find vivid orange, green, and purple varieties, along with the spiraling lime-green Romanesco, at farmers markets. Choose firm, heavy heads with compact curds and fresh green leaves, avoiding brown spots, and store cauliflower in the refrigerator, using it within about a week.
