What is Cauliflower?

Cauliflower is a vegetable that belongs to the Brassicaceae family, which also includes broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts. It is characterized by its compact head, called the “curd,” which consists of undeveloped flower buds. Cauliflower comes in various colors, including white, orange, green, and purple, although the white variety is the most common.

Cauliflower is a versatile vegetable and can be prepared in various ways, such as steaming, boiling, roasting, or even mashed as a substitute for mashed potatoes.
