Answer 2

Norwegian Cauliflower Soup

(Blomkalsuppe)
A very smooth and silken first course; serve hot to 4-6 people; a wonderful
Norwegian soup.

1 large head of cauliflower
1-1/2 quarts of boiling water
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1-1/2 Tablespoon of butter
2 Tablespoons of flour
2 egg yolks
2 Tablespoons of whipping cream (or more, to taste)
1/8 teaspoon of nutmeg
Cut the cauliflower and it into bite-size buds, but keep the stalks and trimmings
for the stock. Put the cauliflower stalks and trimmings into a large saucepan of
the boiling water and salt, then-- If you have a steaming basket--stick the steaming
basket on top and add the buds (otherwise you'll have to pick through the stuff to
fish out the buds with a slotted spoon). Cover and simmer until the buds are just
tender, then pull the basket out with the buds and cool. Continue cooking the stalks
and trimmings til they're very soft and mushy. Strain, pitch the mushy cauliflower,
and reserve the stock.

In a Dutch oven, melt the butter and stir in the flour. When smooth, stir in the hot
stock, beating constantly, then cover and simmer for 10 or so minutes. In a separate
bowl, beat the egg yolks and nutmeg into the whipping cream. Remove the soup from the
heat, then carefully and quickly whisk the egg mixture into the stock. Adjust for
seasoning and grate in some white pepper. Return the soup to the lowest possible heat,
for fear of curdling it, add the cauliflower buds, heat through, and serve immediately.

Garnish with a small sprinkling of nutmeg.

Cauliflower and Broccoli Bake

"Fresh broccoli and cauliflower are baked together with a thick cheese sauce!"

INGREDIENTS:
6 ounces fresh cauliflower
6 ounces fresh broccoli
2 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups milk
1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon English mustard
cayenne pepper to taste
salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, boil cauliflower and broccoli until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, and transfer to a medium baking dish.

In a separate medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter, and stir in flour. Gradually whisk in milk, and increase heat to medium. As the mixture thickens, whisk in English mustard, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until a thick sauce has formed, being careful not to allow the mixture to boil. Sprinkle in 2/3 of the cheese, and stir until melted.

Pour sauce over broccoli and cauliflower. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, until bubbly and lightly brown. Sprinkle with remaining cheese during the final 10 minutes of cooking.

Answer 6

I have a good breakfast idea for cauliflower. It is very easy too.

Cook caulif. in boiling water and drain (be careful not to overcook it; it has to be firm, not falling apart).
Dip cooked caulif. in beaten eggs (or only egg whites, whichever you want). Add some salt and black pepper to eggs.
Heat Little bit of oil (can be olive oil) on a skillet and cook pieces of Caulif. in it until the eggs that covering the pieces are cooked. It is very healthy, easy, and nutritious.
