To talk about the taste, cauliflower doesn’t exist well by itself. It always needs an extra dash of something to enhance its savor. If taken as a salad ingredient, it goes best with a dressing. If boiled, a pinch of salt, pepper and butter will enhance the tang. When cooked as a curry, it brings out the best in itself!
