Is all this cauliflower stuff really necessary?
1n 2015 a recipe for pan-roasted cauliflower became massive because the stuff will caramelize candy-sweet in the oven at high heat, but it is still low calorie. Then there was a drought in California where a lot of the stuff is grown and the result was $8 a head cauliflower around the holidays 2015. People still paid the money because the recipe was so hot. Then came riced cauliflower in the place of real rice (or mashed potatoes).
Now there is a ton of cauliflower-based processed food like Dr. Oetker Yes It's Pizza cauliflower-crust pizza, Caulipower cauliflower plain pizza crust, Wholly Veggie buffalo cauliflower wings, PC breaded cauliflower bites, Green Giant cauliflower veggie tots, Green Giant cauliflower riced veggies, & Green Giant cheddar & bacon mashed cauliflower.
Colour me skeptical, but did any of this need to be invented? At least it is all < $8 so the food industry seems to have recovered from the Great Cauliflower Drought of 2015 with the Great Cauliflower Downpour of 2021. Has anybody tried any of it? And if you are going to go hard on the fats, what is wrong with a good old mound of aloo gobi?
