Cauliflower, a member of the cabbage family, is a solid head, white in colour, with tightly clustered flowers, or florets. The florets are the most tender part, but the entire head is edible. Cauliflower is available year-round. Avoid heads with brown patches or speckles or yellowed leaves.
Store in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
In Thai cooking, Cauliflower florets often wind up in soups and stir fried, or as a side dish dipping with spicy shrimp paste sauce.
