My first ever cauliflower

I managed to grow a few cauli's for the first time. It went a little pink as I couldn't bring myself to pick it:

That's beautiful! I'm SO envious!
Did it taste nice and how did you cook it? Or is it still on the mantlepiece being admired?

[amandaandherveg]

Thanks Vicky. It became a pot of Cream of Cauliflower and Spinach Soup, the second one was turned into a very cheesy Cauliflower Cheese, yum! The last if them are going to be made into Cauliflower Chutney.

OMG that is gorgeous and my fav veg, i am so so so jealous, just hoping that mine in the ground now survive the pillars! wow wow wow - well done you x

That's fantastic! I wouldn't have appreciated your achievement, but this is also my first year of growing veg and I've failed miserably in the growing of even one small cauliflower. I hope it tastes as good as it looks.

[vicky]

What's your secret? I've never managed caulis (apart from one the size of a 50p, but I don't like to talk about that!)

[Cutecumber]

Great job! Congratulations!

[SlugLobber]

I've tried caulis once before and failed miserably. Those are fantastic specimens!!

Wonderful Cauli - I'm with the rest on scoring a 100% failure rate on anything worth eating - well done you!

(lovely puppy, love the shed colour too!)

we got cauli but its only the size of a tennis ball when i looked yesterday it looks like its started to discolour how do you know when its time to pick. Its our first year growing so still lots to learn

[quark1]

That's a magnificent cauli - and you even have a dog to match - wrinkles, bumps, flaps and colour co-ordinated!

Well done!

Love your shed and garden furniture too. It looks very inviting

[Demeter]

Wow! That's very impressive indeed!
