GARLIC WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 large head cauliflower (2 1/2 to 3 pounds)
6 sprigs thyme
6 cloves garlic (3 smashed, 3 thinly sliced)
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
1 shallot, roughly chopped
Zest of 1 lemon (in wide strips)
1 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup sugar
Kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Trim the cauliflower: Cut the stem flush with the bottom. Cut a few slits into the core extending into the thick branches of the cauliflower (keep the florets intact). Put 3 thyme sprigs, the smashed garlic, bay leaves, coriander seeds and peppercorns on a square of cheesecloth and tie into a bundle. Combine 12 cups water, the celery, shallot, lemon zest, wine, sugar, 1/3 cup salt and the cheesecloth bundle in a pot large enough to submerge the cauliflower. Bring to a boil, whisking to dissolve the salt and sugar. Carefully add the cauliflower core-side down and cook until there is a slight resistance when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes. (It's OK if the top of the cauliflower pops up during cooking.) Remove the cauliflower to a baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, make the garlic oil: Combine the remaining 3 thyme sprigs, the sliced garlic, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the garlic starts browning, 3 to 5 minutes. Discard the thyme. Brush the cauliflower with half of the oil, leaving the sliced garlic behind.
  • Roast the cauliflower until browned and tender, 30 to 40 minutes, brushing halfway through with the remaining garlic oil; reserve 1 teaspoon garlic oil and the sliced garlic.
  • Transfer the cauliflower to a cutting board or platter using a spatula. Add the parsley to the reserved garlic oil and spoon over the cauliflower. Cut into wedges.

WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH BLACK-GARLIC CRUMBLE AND PARSLEY-ANCHOVY BUTTER



Whole Roasted Cauliflower With Black-Garlic Crumble and Parsley-Anchovy Butter image

The chef Sean Brock came up with this first course after making Craig Claiborne's Bagna Cauda. Instead of bathing the garlic and anchovy in the oil, Mr. Brock has you bathe a whole head of cauliflower in it. You use a ring mold to hold up the cauliflower in a sauté pan, then brown it by spooning over bubbling oil and butter - a process that's fun and a little hairy - and finish it in the oven. In place of garlic, you use fermented black garlic (which is soft and woodsy in flavor) and milk powder to make a "crumble." You slice the cauliflower into large slabs, like cross-sections of a tree, and top them with an anchovy butter and the crumble.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup nonfat powdered milk
10 black garlic cloves, peeled (see note)
Half the reserved brown butter (3-4 tablespoons)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 anchovy fillets
Salt
Grated zest from 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/3 cup chopped parsley
1 small head cauliflower
1/2 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt

Steps:

  • Make the black-garlic crumble: place the butter, powdered milk and black garlic cloves in a medium saucepan over low heat and cook until the powdered milk is golden brown and nutty, 20 minutes. Strain the butter from the solids and reserve. Dry the solids on paper towels. Place the solids and garlic cloves in a food processor and pulse to combine until the garlic is evenly distributed. Dry on paper towels.
  • Prepare the parsley-anchovy butter: Heat half the reserved brown butter with the fresh butter and mash in the anchovies. Season with salt, zest and juice. Fold in the parsley. Refrigerate until moldable. Using plastic wrap, form the butter into a log. Chill.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove the leaves from the cauliflower, leaving 1 inch of stem intact. Place a ring mold or cookie cutter around the stem to keep the cauliflower upright. Place the cauliflower, oil and butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Season the cauliflower with salt. With a large spoon, continually pour the hot oil-butter mixture over the cauliflower, lowering the heat to medium-low if the fat begins to smoke. After about 20 minutes, once the outside is golden brown, place the pan in the oven and bake until just tender in the middle, 15 to 20 minutes. Keep warm.
  • To serve: cut the warm cauliflower into 4 sections. Cut the butter log into 1/4-inch disks and place three slices on each section of cauliflower. Sprinkle with black-garlic crumble.

Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
3 1/2 oz. finely grated Parmesan (about 1 cup)
2 1/2 oz. coarsely grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 1 cup)
2 Tbsp. plus 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
4 large heads of cauliflower, cored, outer leaves removed

  • Do Ahead: Uncrumbled panko mixture can be baked 1 day ahead. Wrap baking sheet with plastic and store at room temperature.

SAUTEED CAULIFLOWER WITH BREAD CRUMBS, PARSLEY, CAPERS AND OLIVES



Sauteed Cauliflower With Bread Crumbs, Parsley, Capers And Olives image

Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 side dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, more if needed
1 small head cauliflower, sliced into flat 1/8-inch-thick florets
Sea salt, to taste
3/4 cup coarsely chopped day-old country bread (in pea-size pieces)
2 teaspoons crushed coriander seeds
2 large anchovy fillets packed in olive oil, drained and pounded to paste with a mortar and pestle
1/3 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup roughly chopped green Sicilian olives (or other mild olives)
1 tablespoon capers, drained
1 tablespoon aged sherry vinegar
Coarsely ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add two tablespoons olive oil. When it shimmers, add half the cauliflower, spreading it out so pieces are tightly packed but lay flat in pan. Season with salt. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes, until browned on bottom and softening at edges. Turn pieces and brown other side. When just tender remove to a shallow serving bowl. Return pan to heat and repeat with 2 tablespoons olive oil and remaining cauliflower.
  • Return pan to heat again. Add remaining tablespoon olive oil. Add bread and coriander and toss to coat in oil. When bread is lightly browned on edges, stir in anchovy paste. Pour this over cauliflower. Add parsley, olives and capers. Sprinkle vinegar on top. Season generously with black pepper and toss well. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper or vinegar, as desired. Serve warm or at room temperature. For a main course, cauliflower may be tossed with pasta, a little oil and some pasta cooking water.

PAN-ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC, PARSLEY AND ROSEMARY



Pan-Roasted Cauliflower With Garlic, Parsley and Rosemary image

Nearly any vegetable tastes good browned in olive oil and showered with garlic, parsley and rosemary, but cauliflower is an especially good candidate for this technique. The inherent sweetness of cauliflower begs for a hit of lemon and hot pepper too. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     easy, quick, vegetables, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium cauliflower heads (about 2 pounds)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and black pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon grated or finely minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary
1/2 cup roughly chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/4 cup roasted salted almonds (homemade or store bought), roughly chopped
1 red fresno chile, thinly sliced, for garnish (optional)
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut each cauliflower in quarters and remove the core. Cut quarters into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Chop down wider slices so all are approximately the same jagged size.
  • Heat olive oil in a heavy wide skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add cauliflower and toss to coat using a metal spatula or flat wooden spoon. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Keeping heat brisk, repeatedly turn the cauliflower, letting the slices brown as they cook. Adjust heat as necessary to keep them sizzling nicely but not scorching. Continue to stir and flip the cauliflower until it is tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add crushed red pepper, garlic, rosemary, parsley and lemon zest. Stir well to coat and cook 1 minute more. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with almonds and fresno chile, if using, and serve with lemon wedges.
