With firm and white to creamy, evenly sized florets, our cauliflowers taste delicious raw or cooked and 80g is 1 of your 5 a day.

Raw cauliflower is mildly sweet with a hint of nuttiness. There's a mild peppery or mustard-like undertone that adds complexity and the texture is crisp and refreshing, making it enjoyable in salads or as a crudité.

Cooked cauliflower brings out a deeper sweetness and earthy notes whereas roasting or sautéing can create more nutty and savoury flavours, almost like roasted nuts. The texture becomes tender, ranging from slightly firm to creamy depending on the cooking method.

Serve it roasted, steamed, or mashed as a side dish with any meal, use it as a base for creamy soups or add it to chunky soups for extra texture. It's a fantastic ingredient for vegetarian and vegan cuisine, where it can be used to create everything from "steaks" to "rice" to "wings."

Cauliflower pairs well with a variety of cheeses, especially cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan. Creamy sauces complement the mild flavour of cauliflower and it works well with both warm spices like cumin and curry powder and fresh herbs like parsley and dill. A squeeze of lemon juice brightens the flavours and garlic adds a pungent kick.
