morphsci Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Well, I know it was not The Tice, since the pieces are still large enough to photograph. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Steaming the cauliflower seems to work best. Then either mash with butter to taste or purée in food processor if you want a smoother consistency. I also like to grate raw cauliflower and use it like rice in stir fries or chop into thin slices, toss with olive oil and roast on a baking sheet. Latter is my French fry replacement. Damn, several good ideas right in that one post. And I just bought cauliflower, with no specific plans for it. And before I saw any of the cauliflower posts in this thread.

Seed Lady Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Grahame -- I thought of you !! They are so you. Debating how small to crumble bacon. In mine, you could taste chunks. About the size of chocolate chips, but chewy texture was odd. I think smaller chunks better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absorbine_Sr Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Split peas cooked with bacon, onion, carrots, garlic, rosemary, bay leaf, and chicken broth. As a huge split pea soup fan, that sounds very good. Recipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) As a huge split pea soup fan, that sounds very good. Recipe? I took this recipe and changed it a bit to make it less of a soup and more like a dish with lentils. 3 cups of low sodium chicken broth instead of 4-14oz 5 slices of bacon because that is how much I had in the fridge green onion instead of leeks since I didn't have leeks an extra 3 garlic cloves 1 sprig of rosemary (probably more than they called for) I topped it with feta I only let it simmer for 30-35 minutes (I just tested it for doneness, still a bit firm but cooked). I probably should have added some celery but got lazy. I forgot how much I love split peas. http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Split-Pea-Soup-with-Bacon-and-Rosemary-103872 Edited April 16, 2014 by shellylh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absorbine_Sr Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Love the improvising and personalizing. We will try our own version of this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Cruciferendipity! Threw an entire bag of cauliflower in my current batch of chilli. This is better filler than my oatmeal or couscous or pretty much anything else I've yet tried. Cut it down to "rice" size (or "meat crumble" size), and after cooking for an hour, it has the perfect consistency of hamburger helper type stuff, without being so crunchy as to be "nuts", and without the starchy coating. I'll def be doing this again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
