Check out Episode 22 of the new food podcast,
Chicken 'n Waffles!

My veggie hash from "What the heck did you eat from your CSA?" segment.

Join us this week as guest host Dan Gould and I chat about San Fran?s new take on urban gardens, a podcast covering street food, what the f to do with kohlrabi, and we have our second CSA smackdown with cauliflower. We suggest you pair this with a local brew (if in Chicago, we highly enjoy the dark ale Half Acre brews) and anything with cauliflower. Mainly because we got a 4 pound head of it in our current CSA. Eat up, bitches!

CSA Smackdown: Cauliflower Dan's Curry Cauliflower a la Tyler Florence

Dan's curry cauliflower!

Ingredients 1/4 cup ghee, recipe follows 1 yellow onion, finely chopped 2 tablespoons curry powder, recipe follows 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and julienned 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped 1 head cauliflower (about 1 pound), cut into florets 3 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed 2 tablespoons tomato paste Salt Cilantro leaves, for garnish Directions Heat the ghee in a deep skillet or pot over medium flame. Add the onion, curry powder, and ginger; cook and stir for a few minutes to soften the onion. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until the tomatoes break down and soften, about 6 minutes. Mix in the cauliflower, chickpeas, tomato paste, and 1 cup of water; stir everything together. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover, and continue cooking until the excess moisture has evaporated and the cauliflower and chickpeas are coated with a thick gravy. Season with salt, to taste, and garnish with cilantro before serving.

Leena's Caramelized Cauliflower with Salsa Verde a la Orangette

My first attempt @ Orangette's caramelized cauliflower with salsa verde!

Ingredients Salsa Verde: ? of a medium jalapeno, seeds and ribs removed, finely chopped 2 T finely chopped cilantro leaves 1 T finely chopped flat leaf parsley 3 crushed cloves of garlic 3 T fresh lime juice 4 T olive oil S & p to taste Cauliflower: 1 medium cauliflower, 2 pounds Olive oil S & p For the sauce, combine all ingredients together and let sit for at least 30 minutes before using. For the cauliflower, wash and dry well. Cut the cauliflower vertically like you are slicing a loaf of bread, in order to cut steaks of the cauliflower. You will only get four steaks from a whole head. Coat each steak with olive oil, s & p, and roast in a 450 F oven until browned on both sides. Serve the cauliflower immediately with the salsa verde drizzled on top.

You know you want my cauliflower. Don't lie. It only hurts you and little puppies.
