AKRISONER Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I've recently replaced mashed potatoes with mashed cauliflower.. Out of this world! (And a lot better for you) Holy crap, i need to try this! Have you tried them with the standard mashed potatos additions, garlic, sour cream etc?

Headhunter Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Stop wasting cauliflower!!!!!!! The best way to prepare it is to do it up just like you do your breaded fish! Cut it into small pieces and wash it. While it is still damp, add kosher salt, garlic powder and onion powder and crushed black pepper. Let is sit for at least an hour. Then dredge them in flour, egg wash and bread crumbs (we like Panko!) and pan fry until golden brown. Put the fried pieces in the oven for 1/2 an hour at 325 to finish cooking through. Make an awesome side dish with roast beef (PRIMER!!!) especially when you add some gravy to them!!!!! You can thank me later! HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Holy crap, i need to try this! Have you tried them with the standard mashed potatos additions, garlic, sour cream etc? I steam the cauliflower then use a hand held food processor to thin it out. I add about half a cup of browned garlic, a wee bit of butter and some salt to taste. I usually eat this with a chicken breast (Done on the BBQ).. Sometimes I'll dice the chicken and toss it into the mix as well. Super simple, super fast, very good for you.

davis Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I've recently replaced mashed potatoes with mashed cauliflower.. Out of this world! (And a lot better for you) Also a good substitute for rice. Cut it up into small'ish florets (raw), pulse in a food processor until about the same size as rice. Fry it up, bake it, or even microwave it. Just don't add water/liquid - it'll absorb it quickly and turn mushy. Sautee onions and garlic in coconut oil, add the cauli rice and cook til it's al-dente'ish and finish with lime zest and cilantro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirCranksalot Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 funny the cultural differences. Yep---food is very very cultural. e.g British navy explorers starved in the Arctic rather than 'go native' and eat Inuit food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigugli Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 I love pickled herring! Feature foods spiced matjes herring is a must try for any pickled herring lover You have no idea what good pickled herring is. The really good stuff you used to get right out of the barrel just like good dill pickles. Used to be a good Finnish shop on Queen st called Huites. These days, when you get a chance, go to IKEA's deli, there is a good variety of 5-6 flavours of herring. IF you are ever in Minnesota or Michigan, Look for a brand called Gafelbiters. The Norwegian herring was a family favourite, but no one sells it here in Ontario now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried all kinds of pickled herring over the years and in my opinion the Feature foods herring is the best I've had. Even better than Vesta.
