CAULIFLOWER-POTATO AND CARAWAY SALAD
Anthoxanthins- Not to be confused with anthocyanins found in red, blue and purple fruits and vegetables, anthoxanthins are responsible for the white and creamy yellows found in food. They are known for antioxidant properties, seeking out free radicals in the body and stabilizing them. Cauliflower is a wonderful source and proves that not all "white" food is bad for you!

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; lower the heat and simmer until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the cauliflower to the pot and cook until fork-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and let rest until cool enough to handle. Peel off the potato skins (use a clean dish towel to rub off the skins) and cut into chunks. Combine the potatoes, cauliflower and onions in a medium bowl.
- Combine 1/2 cup water, the vinegar, sugar, caraway, 1/2 teaspoon salt, the peppercorns and dill in a small pot and bring to a simmer. Strain and pour the hot vinegar mixture over the vegetables, and toss in another 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and refrigerate until cold, tossing occasionally, at least 2 hours (up to overnight).

CAULIFLOWER SALAD
Everyone who tries this salad loves it! I like to make it often when cauliflower is in season. People may be surprised, but there still are a lot of farms here on Long Island, and there's nothing quite like fresh Long Island produce. -Paula Pelis, Rocky Point, New York

Steps:
- In a 2-quart microwave-safe baking dish stir together the shallot, the caraway seeds, and the oil and microwave the mixture, covered, at high power (100%) for 2 minutes, or until the shallot is softened. Stir in the cauliflower and the water, microwave the mixture, covered, at high power for 4 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender, and season it with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Choose the right cauliflower: Look for cauliflowers that are compact and have tightly closed florets. Avoid heads with brown spots or blemishes.
- Clean the cauliflower properly: Remove the outer leaves and cut the cauliflower into florets. Rinse the florets thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
- Cook the cauliflower al dente: To retain the cauliflower's texture and nutrients, cook it just until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking will make the cauliflower mushy.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, and dill, add a pop of flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Don't skimp on the dressing: The dressing is what brings all the flavors of the salad together. Be generous with the dressing, but don't drown the salad in it.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The cauliflower will start to lose its crunch if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Creamy Cauliflower Caraway Salad is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with nutrients and has a creamy, tangy dressing that is sure to please everyone. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this salad is a great option for busy weeknights or potlucks. Give it a try and enjoy this flavorful and nutritious dish!
