Cauliflower (Single)
Product Description
Cauliflower is made up of tightly bound clusters of florets that form a dense head, similar to that of broccoli. Resembling a classic tree in shape the clusters sprout from stems which are attached to a singular central white trunk. The stems and trunk are firm and tender and the florets have a dense yet soft and crumbly texture. Its flavor is mild with subtle cruciferous and nutty sweet nuances, a taste which is amplified when roasted. The entire cauliflower, its leaves, trunk, stems, and florets are all edible.
Cauliflower, botanical name Brassica oleracea var. botytis, belonging to the plant order Capparales, is a cool season biennial. Unlike broccoli, cauliflower does not ordinarily develop side shoots, hence it must be harvested properly and consistently before it matures.
