WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH HERB-MUSTARD GLAZE



Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Herb-Mustard Glaze image

Rich Landau's earliest holiday memories revolve around turkey. "My Thanksgiving was straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting," he says. Things have changed since then: Rich and his wife Kate Jacoby own two vegan restaurants, Vedge in Philadelphia and Fancy Radish in Washington, DC. Vegetables now have the starring role at their holiday meals-in this case, a whole cauliflower roasted with traditional Thanksgiving herbs. "The holiday is about flavors, not turkey," he says. If you want to make this cauliflower feel like a classic feast, set up a carving station!

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 heads garlic
6 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 large shallot, chopped
1 cup vegan mayonnaise
Freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons dried sage
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup grainy mustard
4 heads cauliflower, leaves trimmed
1/2 cup sunflower oil

Steps:

  • Make the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Cut the top 1 inch off the garlic heads and place on a large sheet of foil, cut-sides up. Drizzle with the olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Wrap the foil around the garlic heads and bake until the garlic is browned and soft, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and unwrap. When cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins. You should have about 1 cup roasted garlic.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine the roasted garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, shallot, vegan mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons pepper, the sage and rosemary in a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer the glaze to a bowl and stir in the grainy mustard.
  • Working in batches if needed, add the cauliflower to the boiling water and cook until slightly puffed and yellowed, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and let cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 400˚ F (use the convection setting, if available). Transfer the cauliflower to a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with the sunflower oil and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Bake 10 minutes.
  • Remove the cauliflower from the oven and pour the mustard glaze evenly over each head. Return to the oven and bake until the glaze turns golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is compact and heavy, with tightly packed florets. Avoid heads with any signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Cut the cauliflower into even-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, they may not cook through, and if they are too small, they may overcook and become mushy.
  • Toss the cauliflower in a mixture of olive oil, salt, and pepper: This will help the cauliflower to brown and caramelize in the oven.
  • Roast the cauliflower at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the cauliflower while keeping the inside tender.
  • Make the glaze: While the cauliflower is roasting, make the glaze by combining honey, Dijon mustard, and balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened slightly.
  • Brush the cauliflower with the glaze: Once the cauliflower is roasted, brush it with the glaze and return it to the oven for a few minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.

Conclusion:

Glazed roasted cauliflower is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Try experimenting with different glazes, such as a maple- Dijon glaze or a barbecue sauce glaze. You can also add other vegetables to the roasting pan, such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or carrots. Glazed roasted cauliflower is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
