Cauliflower is a nutrient powerhouse, packed with fiber and vitamin C. Just half a cup of florets provides almost half of your daily vitamin C needs. The vegetable's distinctive shape, with its cluster-like florets sprouting from a central white trunk, resembles a miniature tree. The stems and trunk are firm yet tender, while the florets have a dense, soft, and slightly crumbly texture. Cauliflower has a mild flavor with subtle nutty and cruciferous notes that become more pronounced when roasted.
Blend into a soup; roast in the oven with curry powder; add to a crudité platter.
