We have just started eating our own cauliflowers from the garden. They are a heritage variety and quite loosely formed so I have been using much more of the stem and leaves. Delicious flavour and texture. We have a lot of cauliflower gratin, saff or parmesan mash and spicy florets done in a pan with a splash of water. We did Ottolenghi's whole roast the other day and that was lovely too.
It is the village May day walk and picnic tomorrow and I am making the pear and almond brownies. OH is making a fougasse as they like his bread!
