Ocado Cauliflower & Broccoli Florets.This mixed pack of firm and fresh creamy cauliflower and vibrant green broccoli florets are similarly sized to make cooking quick and simple. The broccoli provides a slightly earthy, bitter, and peppery taste when raw, which mellows into a sweeter, more earthy flavour when cooked. Raw cauliflower is mildly sweet with a hint of nuttiness and a mild peppery or mustard-like undertone. Cooking brings out a deeper sweetness and earthy notes whereas roasting or sautéing can create more nutty and savoury flavours, The cauliflower offers a mild flavour that is less intense, and more neutral in taste than broccoli.Raw or lightly blanched, they add a colourful and crunchy element to a variety of salads and are great for dipping in hummus, ranch, or other dips as part of a veggie platter. When steamed, boiled, roasted, or sautéed, they make an excellent accompaniment to almost any main course, from roasted chicken to grilled fish. They hold up well in a stir-fry, adding both texture and a blend of flavours. They absorb sauces well, making them a great base for many Asian-inspired dishes.Roasting brings out the sweetness and nutty flavours of both and are great bedfellows when roasted in a tray alongside other vegetables and a protein source for an easy one-pan meal. They can be used as a base for vegetable or creamy soups, can be tossed into pasta with garlic and olive oil, or blended into a creamy sauce to add extra vegetables.Looking for more fresh produce for your favourite meals?
