This is the same marinade/dressing/method I use for slaw; it's great on a bowl of mixed veggies like cauliflower, carrots, broccoli, turnips, etc., but I see no reason why one could not do just cauliflower, whose best flavor, to me, is when eaten raw. It would be a great addition to a picnic lunch or dinner, or as part of an antipasto course, or as a counterpart to a baked ham or pork loin. - Kayb

  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 1/2 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water

Kayb's sweet and tangy marinade is just what raw cauliflower needs to transform it from a humdrum crudité to a zippy accompaniment for barbecue, or even a simple hors d'oeuvre all of its own. Cider vinegar and sugar are tinted a psychedelic yellow from a combination of ground mustard and turmeric, which adds earthiness and a hint of spice. - A&M
