4. Cooking Cauliflower Methods
You can cook and prepare cauliflower in a number of ways:
–> Cabbage cooked soft in salt water is more digestible because the cabbage loses the irritants.
–> Steaming cauliflower promises to preserve most of the vital substances.
–> First boil the cauliflower with a little liquid and then fry it promises a special treat for the palate.
–> The cauliflower in the oven is particularly quick and is a modern and popular cooking method.
You can find the different types of preparation below:


5. Boil Cauliflower In Salted Water
In a large enough pot, cook the cauliflower directly in boiling salted water.
You can cook the cabbage whole or prepare florets first.
Of course, the split cabbage florets cook faster.
I always cook my cabbage with a little bite, because it is refined afterwards.
The benefit of boiling cauliflower in water:
This is quick and uncomplicated, the cabbage loses the irritating substances through direct contact with water and is more digestible.


6. Steam Cauliflower
Steaming is cooking in steam, you can easily do that on the stove.
Steam the cabbage florets in a steamer or in a strainer with a lid over boiling water.
Advantage of steaming cauliflower:
This method promises the least loss of vitamins, the cabbage taste is fully preserved, as are irritating substances.


7. Roast Cauliflower
Chop the cauliflower, briefly cook the cabbage in a pan with a little water, then fry directly.
The smaller you cut the cauliflower, the better it can be fried quickly.
Cooking in the oven is also roasting.
To do this, place the cabbage florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Season with olive oil, salt and pepper and cook until soft at 200°C hot air or bottom/top heat setting as desired.
Benefit of frying cauliflower:
It’s quick and you don’t need a sieve, the taste of the cauliflower develops fantastically.


8. Prepare Cauliflower Leaves
You can prepare the cabbage leaves as a vegetable or use them for stuffing.
Here you will find tips for optimal preparation and use of the cabbage leaves…
