Celebrating Cauliflowers with a Q or two ...

[One Handed Toast]

I'm a food writer and illustrator and would really welcome some grow your own insight on cauliflowers.

I love this vegetable - from stalk to leaf and want to develop a few more recipes. I'd be so grateful for you thoughts on ...

Seasonality: I gather we're in-between seasons right now. Is it right that the new varieties come in towards the end of this month. What are the qualities of spring cauliflowers and is this a good time to develop and write about cauliflower recipes?

Whilst I love the florets, the stalks and leaves are such great resources for cooks. Any thoughts on the best varieties for juicy leaves and stalks?

Any favourite varieties or cooking methods - I'd love to hear about them ...

Thank you!

Joe
