Choose a firm cauliflower with very compact florets. Avoid white cauliflower with yellowish spots, a clear sign of lack of freshness. The leaves should be green and still crisp and the stem should be firm, not discolored and clean. Cauliflower heads with brown spots mean they are at the end of their life.Keep
Store whole, unwashed cauliflower in the refrigerator, in a perforated plastic bag and/or in the crisper drawer, for up to five days after purchase. If cooked, cauliflower will only keep for 2 or 3 days. Sensitive to ethylene (natural gas given off by some fruits and vegetables), cauliflower does best if placed away from the apple, pear or avocado. Blanch for a few minutes, store in an airtight container, then freeze for longer storage.Preparation
To reap the full benefits of cauliflower, it is recommended to eat it raw or undercooked. Grated, crushed, roasted, mashed, the variations on cauliflower are endless. In addition, its green leaves are edible and pleasantly flavor soups and soups.Stay healthy
