  • Cauliflower . . . the New Kale!
    CAULIFLOWER . THE NEW KALE! According to Mark Twain: “A cauliflower is nothing but a cabbage with a college education.” The word "cauliflower" derives from the Italian cavolfiore, meaning "cabbage flower". Cauliflowers have been around for a long time and they continue to evolve. Their history and ancestry traces to the wild cabbage and references note that it was popular in Europe as early as the 15th century. It came to America in the 1800’s we think but wasn’t commercially available here until the 1920’s. It is one of several vegetables that belongs to the species Brassica oleracea which also includes broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, collard greens, kale, mustard and turnips which are collectively called "cole" crops. Many think that the word “cole” is a variation of the word “cold” because they grow better in cold weather. Actually “cole” is a variation of a Latin word that means stem. That creamy head of cauliflower is made up of hundreds of immature flower buds that grow to form the head or “curd” (because it resembles cheese curd) which we are so familiar with. Though we usually discard the leaves in favor of the curd, they are also edible and delicious given its cabbage heritage. Cauliflower is a powerhouse of nutrition. It’s rich in vitamin C with a half cup of florets providing nearly half the daily requirement for vitamin C. It also provides a good amount of fiber, vitamin A, folate, calcium and potassium as well as selenium, which works with Vitamin C to boost the immune system.
