MARINATED CAULIFLOWER SALAD



Marinated Cauliflower Salad image

This tasty salad can marinate for up to a day, which lets the cauliflower soak up the dressing. It's delicious chilled or at room temperature.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large head cauliflower (about 2 pounds), cut into small florets
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons brine-packed capers, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Working in batches, blanch cauliflower until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain; transfer to a bowl.
  • Whisk together vinegar, onion, and mustard in a small bowl. Pour in oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle vinaigrette over warm cauliflower, and add capers and parsley. Stir to combine.
  • Cover, and refrigerate overnight or up to 1 day. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher the vegetables and herbs, the better the salad will taste. Look for produce that is brightly colored and free of blemishes.
  • Use a variety of vegetables and herbs: The more variety you have in your salad, the more flavorful it will be. Try to include a mix of crunchy, tender, and leafy greens, as well as different colors and flavors.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to salad dressings. Try a classic vinaigrette, a creamy ranch dressing, or a tangy citrus dressing. You can also make your own dressing from scratch using fresh herbs and spices.
  • Let the salad marinate for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. If you're short on time, you can marinate the salad for a shorter period of time, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Serve the salad chilled: A chilled salad is more refreshing and enjoyable to eat, especially on a hot day.
