Advice

Cauliflower stays beautifully white when cooked if you add a cup of milk or the juice of one lemon to the water. For meat-eaters, serve the cauliflower bake with cooked ham or prosciutto and potatoes. Salt the cauliflower after it is cooked. If you salt the water in which it is cooked, it will discolor during cooking. Vegetables cooked in steam will retain more vitamins and remain firmer and more flavorful.
