CAULIFLOWER CUSTARD RECIPE



Cauliflower Custard Recipe image

Provided by á-170456

Number Of Ingredients 8

14 ounces cauliflower florets - (abt 4 cups)
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
4 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly-grated nutmeg
1/2 garlic clove
2 tablespoons butter divided
1/2 cup fresh baguette crumbs crusts trimmed

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Steam the cauliflower over high heat until quite tender, 7 to 10 minutes. When it's done, you should be able to crush a floret between your fingers. Undercooking the cauliflower will make the custard grainy. Remove the cauliflower from the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes. Reserve 4 florets for garnish. Transfer the cauliflower to a food processor or blender and pulse several times to grind. Add the heavy cream and purée until fairly smooth but with tiny pieces of cauliflower still evident. Pulse in the eggs, salt and nutmeg. Strain the mixture into a large measuring cup. Stir the purée with a rubber spatula to help it flow through the strainer, but do not press it; this will also make the custard grainy. Divide the strained purée evenly among 6 half-cup ovenproof ramekins. Discard the cauliflower remaining in the strainer. Arrange the ramekins in a large roasting pan and place the roasting pan in the oven. Pour boiling water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake in the water bath until the center of the custard just barely jiggles when the pan is shaken, 35 to 40 minutes. While the custard is baking, prepare the topping. Mince the garlic. Heat a small sauté pan and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the garlic and bread crumbs. Cook over low heat until the crumbs turn golden brown. Remove from the heat and set aside. Slice each reserved cauliflower floret into 3 pieces from top to bottom to form a floret profile. In a separate pan, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Cook the florets until golden brown, then remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside. When the custards are cooked, remove them from the water bath and let them stand at room temperature for 10 minutes to set. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the 6 ramekins and place 2 floret slices on each ramekin. Serve immediately. This recipe yields 6 servings.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: Use fresh, firm cauliflower with tightly packed florets. Avoid any cauliflower that is bruised or discolored.
  • Steam the cauliflower until tender: Steaming is the best way to cook the cauliflower for this recipe. It helps preserve the cauliflower's nutrients and prevents it from becoming waterlogged.
  • Use a food processor to purée the cauliflower: A food processor is the easiest way to get a smooth and creamy purée. If you don't have a food processor, you can also use a blender, but you may need to strain the purée to remove any lumps.
  • Season the custard to taste: The custard should be seasoned with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Bake the custard until it is set: The custard is done baking when it is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
