Steps:
- Fill a bowl with water and add the cauliflower florets and lemon juice. Set aside.
- Using a large frying pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the bread slices and fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Remove from the pan, break into pieces, and place in a blender or food processor.
- Add the paprika to the oil remaining in the pan. Over low heat, cook the paprika for 2 minutes to release the fragrance. Add the 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Drain the cauliflower and add it to the pan. Season with salt and cook, uncovered, until the cauliflower is tender, 10 - 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the garlic, pine nuts, and parsley to the blender or food processor and pulse until well crushed. When the cauliflower is tender, add about 1/4 cup of the cauliflower cooking water, pulse once, and then transfer the mixture to the frying pan. Stir to mix and cook for 5 minutes over low heat to blend the flavors.
- Season to taste and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Trim large leaves off the cauliflower. Trim stalk so cauliflower can sit flat in a Dutch oven.

- Bake in the preheated oven, covered, until tender, about 30 minutes. Uncover and baste with any juices that have pooled at the base. Continue baking, uncovered, until top is browned and center feels completely tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and place a rack in the upper middle section of the oven. Line a baking sheet with a silpat mat or parchment paper and set aside. In a small cup or bowl, combine the oil and the spices and stir to combine. Place the cauliflower in a large bowl and pour the oil and spice mixture over it. Toss with your hands to coat thoroughly. Spread the cauliflower across the lined baking sheet and then place in the oven.
- Roast for 15-20 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender, slightly crisp and browned on the edges. Remove from the oven and squeeze lemon over the top if desired. (We liked it both with and without the lemon.) Serve hot and Enjoy!
