COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
Fall Harvest Salad with Curried Cauliflower

Cauliflower Brine/Pickle

  1. In a large bowl, sprinkle 1 3/4 tsp salt over cauliflower florets and allow to sit for 20 minutes. This allows the cauliflower to become more receptive to the pickling solution. Once time elapses, rinse cauliflower under cold water and set aside.
  2. In a pickling jar, place all dry ingredients then add cauliflower.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine all brine ingredients and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, pour over cauliflower and dry ingredients. This should completely cover cauliflower.
  4. Stir to blend and store in refrigerator for 4-7 days, allowing cauliflower to completely pickle and take on the flavors.

 

Salad Build

  1. Starting with kale, layer all ingredients in salad bowls. Serve.
