I love anything with coconut milk and I have cauliflower, so I'm going to try that. I've never used frozen coconut milk, would you say that equaled a regular can of coconut milk or less - does it matter? What kind of chili did you use, fresh or dried? If dried was it ground? -- Never trust a dog to watch your food. |

The leaves and thick stems from cauliflower make a wonderful vegetable; many of the leaves are tender and mild enough for inclusion in a garden salad, can be minimally cooked like spinach, or finely sliced and made into slaw. The stems/ribs and tougher leaves can be diced and are excellent in soups. Long Island farms grew a lot of cauliflower, in season (now) they are at market in full leaf... since they are sold by the head (not weight) I would always choose those with the most greenery. I don't know why people trim away the greenery and toss it, that's the most nutritious part of the cauliflower. At market I often see a huge pile of leaves that shoppers ripped off and left, sometimes I'll ask the produce manager for a bag and I can have all I want for the picking, makes excellent cabbage soup... whatever I don't use the deer and rabbits love. I see folks discard the just picked beautiful beet tops now too, aiiiii! Even the produce manager shakes his head in disbelief. |

PICs: Roasted Cauliflower
Well, the original post got me wondering, and as I had a whole cauliflower
that I'd just bought I decided to try the Cauliflower 'Steaks'. It was a bit fiddly, but the SO seemed to like the flavour. I did the same with some large heads of broccoli. I only used salt, pepper and parmesan....... no garlic as the SO doesn't like any garlic dishes during the working week :-) I also had a hankering for some beer battered fish, but it ended up being some beer battered vegetables instead, including some Oyster mushrooms. The beer was from a couple nights ago when I had the 'urge' to see if things had changed and I can stand a beer now, and failed :-( http://tinypic.com/m/deog1z/3 http://tinypic.com/m/deog20/3 http://tinypic.com/m/deog21/3 http://tinypic.com/m/deog28/3 http://tinypic.com/m/deog29/3 http://tinypic.com/m/deog3r/3 -- Peter Lucas Hobart Tasmania The act of feeding someone is an act of beauty, whether it's a full Sunday roast or a jam sandwich, but only when done with love. |

I've more hair than your scraggly thin wisps, and nicer... I just don't have tresses hanging to my ass like a friggin' fag boy... and unlike you I don't need to have a bikini wax facial and gargle with Summer's Eve... I have nicer pubic hair than your facial hair. I usta be a platinum blond with gorgeous curls but that was while I was still at my mommy's breast. Then over time my hair darkened and for most of my adult life my hair was brown streaked with blond and not from a bottle, girls would die for my hair... now I'm back to platinum, thick and luxurious. I have nice manly chest hair, not like a baboon assface, just enough curls that the gals enjoy it tickling their nipples, and other sensitive parts depending on position... normal women don't like to feel like they're getting boinked by a women with a strap on or a gorrilla. |

According to the USDA database, raw cauliflower contains about 2% sugar. I know it turns brown, but is that the sugar, or something else? http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ -- Dan Abel Petaluma, California USA |

When you go out into the sun you burn... when I go into the sun I caramelize, because I'm sweet! LOL |
