Cauliflower With Hazelnut Brown Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place hazelnuts on a baking sheet; toast until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Transfer nuts to a kitchen towel; rub off loosened papery skins. Coarsely chop nuts; set aside.
• Trim stems of cauliflower so they sit flat, keeping head intact. Bring several inches of water to a boil in a large steamer or in a pot fitted with a rack; add salt to taste. Steam cauliflower until just tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
• In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add hazelnuts, and cook until butter turns brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and add lemon juice and chives. Season with salt, and stir to combine. Pour over cauliflower, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (425 degrees F, if using convection). Cut the stem off the cauliflower as close to the florets as possible to provide a flat base for roasting. Remove and discard any green leaves. Place the cauliflower in a cast-iron skillet and rub oil all over the surface. Place in the oven and roast, 30 minutes.
• Remove from the oven; the cauliflower should be light brown and slightly softened. Use your hands to carefully mash the softened butter onto the top of the cauliflower. Place back into the oven for 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven. Tilt the skillet to pool the brown butter at one end, then use a spoon to thoroughly baste the cauliflower. Test for doneness by inserting a sharp knife into the center: the cauliflower should be completely tender with no resistance. If it needs a bit more time in the oven, baste one final time and place back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
• Remove from the oven, baste again, and test for doneness. Sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and serve whole or cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a small pan until rippling. Add sage and cook, stirring, just until crisped, about 2 minutes. Lift out sage and drain on paper towels; transfer oil to a large bowl. Let sage cool and crumble with fingers into a small bowl. Stir in coarse salt and set aside.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place roasting pan with an inch of water in oven bottom. Add cauliflower to bowl with oil, add about 1 teaspoon table salt, and toss gently until coated. Spread out on two large baking sheets. Bake until browned, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Melt butter in a small pan over medium heat. When foam subsides, watch closely and stir often. When white solids are brown and butter smells toasty, turn off heat, squeeze in juice of lemon and stir well.
• Transfer cauliflower to a bowl, pour butter over, and add lemon zest. Add half the sage salt and toss. Taste and season with remaining salt as needed.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander in the sink.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter, and move the pan in a circular motion as it melts. When the butter's foam begins to subside, after a couple minutes, add the breadcrumbs. Continue cooking and swirling the skillet, until the butter begins to brown, about 30 seconds more. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice to stop the cooking.
• Add the cauliflower and parsley to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and toss until evenly coated with the brown butter. Warm over medium heat if needed. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place cauliflower in a steamer basket set over a large, lidded pot (preferably wider than taller) of boiling water. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the pot and steam until cauliflower is totally tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (You can check the doneness by piercing it with a paring knife or fork.)
• Meanwhile, heat butter and hazelnuts in a small pot over medium heat. Cook, swirling the pot occasionally, until the butter has melted and begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Using a wooden spoon or small whisk, stir the butter, making sure all the milk solids and hazelnuts are browning evenly. Add olive oil and continue to cook until both the butter and hazelnuts are deeply golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Once the cauliflower is done, use a potato masher or large fork to gently crush it into bite-size pieces. Transfer cauliflower to a large serving platter or plate, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Spoon hazelnut mixture over the cauliflower, and top with chives and flaky salt. Serve alongside lemon halves for squeezing.
