Cauliflower and broccoli have the same recipe: small pieces; steam for around 10 minutes; it’s done when it starts getting soft.
Season as you like. I like with either just a bit of salt, or covered with butter fried breadcrumbs.
cauli wings are fucking delicious and the best food to pair with chicken wings
We can just call it fried cauliflower though
It doesn’t need to be wings
Yeah it ain’t flying anywhere except into my mouth
take that up with boneless wings then, wings are just crunchy nuggets
So you’re saying we need to put bones in the broccoli?
🤔
Listen man I would eat fried broccoli like wings too if people would serve it. Fried broccoli is good as fuck.
In my world, it’s a vehicle for butter and salt. A great one, at that.

NO. It will become what i tell it to become and it will be glorious when im done.
In my opinion, cauliflower sucks unless it’s been roasted/fried/seared with dry high heat to the point of being brown and crispy.
If it is overcooked, the rupture of the cell walls makes that cabbage stank run out into the dish.
If it’s still raw or cooked at too low a temperature (which includes any temperature in which liquid water will exist on the surface), it’s missing the delicious browning that happens at high heat.
That means it doesn’t work as cauliflower “wings.” The breading/batter protects the cauliflower too much, and it ends up steaming itself inside. Just batter up some firm tofu instead, those are great wings.
It can work as cauliflower “steak” I guess, but that doesn’t really taste like it should fit the culinary role of a protein/main. I’m all about roasting cauliflower, and flat slices make it easy to grill or sear evenly, but that just doesn’t fit that ecological niche that a steak does.
So I generally don’t like cauliflower served with broccoli. They cook too differently to be able to actually cook them together in the same batch.
I’m a vegan and love fake meat, I love tofu, I love seitan, I love beyond burger, I love mountains of veggies. I love bean burgers, veggie burgers, pakora, etc.
I do not like cauliflower in any other form than in its OG form, lmao…
I do not like green eggs & yams
I’m vegan-ish & my favorite cauliflower is pickled

I’m an omnivore and love all of that too. I’d add tempeh and many mushrooms to that list too.

Cauliflower leans closer to its cousin, cabbage. Its really easy to mess up cauliflower and make it taste and smell horrible.
I finally figured out how to really enjoy cauliflower rice, as a replacement in “fried rice”. You’ve got to get a lot of the water out of it first, then go high heat with a fat. I use butter, but you might be able to get away with avocado oil to stay vegan. Get that maillard reaction going so it browns up just a bit, add some soy sauce, add some diced veggies, and I throw in a scrambled egg I cooked earlier.
Is it identical to actual rice “fried rice”? No, but its close enough for me and is extremely cheap as far as calories go, about 90-120 calories per serving instead of 340 calories or so for actual fried rise. Cauliflower fried rice is also very on low carbs so its friendly to keto folks. Lastly, its also gluten free for our Celiac friends.
Every now and then Chipotle will have Cauliflower rice and it works pretty well with Mexican dishes too.
I do the same! I dont think of it as rice. Just a veggie with a different texture that I like
It’s OG form is the Wild Mustard Plant. Broccoli, cauliflower, Kale, Kohlrabi, Cabbage, and Brussels Sprouts are all Wild Mustard Plant that was selectively bred for each different part of the plant they wanted to be bigger. Cauliflower is from the flower clusters part of the plant being bred larger.
It’s not true they are tiny dead trees felled by tiny lumberjacks who work really hard.
I hate cauliflower on its own but as a person with Celiac, cauliflower crust has been the best thing to exist since sliced gluten free bread
I don’t have a recipe handy, but there’s one that uses rice flour and tapioca starch that’s decent as well.
No way. Fry it, mash it, stick it in a stew, I say!
Fun fact:
Broccoli and cauliflower (and more), “are all actually varieties of the same species, Brassica oleracea: cauliflower, cabbage, kohlrabi, Brussels sprouts, Chinese broccoli, and collard greens.”

Yay mustard!
It’s like the chocolate aisle at the supermarket. So much variety, but ultimately you’re choosing between Cadbury and Nestle.
You must not live in America, ultimately it’s all just Hersheys here
(except for m&m’s, which are made by mars)
Raw, wriggling, and covered in ranch!
Give your cauliflowers a spa day in a nice cheese sauce jacuzzi
cauliflower is only ever meant to be mixed with broccoli and a nice cheese sauce. i will die on this hill. come at me.
Cauliflower pasta with anchovies!
i’ve never had anchovies. but i did see a post the other day where someone found a pufferfish in their bag of anchovies.
i feel like the only people who like anchovies are nordics and sociopaths :P
Actually what is sold as anchovies (ansjos) in Norway are sprats and don’t even taste similar to anchovies. I’ve only rarely seen actual anchovies in the shop and it’s usually in an international food shop. Anchovies are delicious on pizza.
i’ve been a hard drinker for 25 years, but maybe one day i’ll be drunk enough to try anchovies. hell, it worked with sardines…
Ghost broccoli, zombie broccoli, depleted Br-238
