ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH LEMON-CAPER VINAIGRETTE
Cauliflower shows no signs of losing steam as the "it" vegetable, as folks can't seem to get enough of its mild, slightly nutty flavor. To help you work more cauliflower into your daily life, here we offer 4 delicious-and fast-ways to enjoy it. We speed up the process of roasting the florets by going under the broiler; it takes only 10 minutes for the cauliflower to cook to tenderness and develop a delicious bit of browning. Be sure to use small florets as indicated; larger ones will take much longer to cook.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER, RAISINS AND ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE
Roasting toughens cauliflower and dries it out a bit. With many foods, this description may not sound that appealing, but because cauliflower is often mushy and watery, roasting is beneficial. Here, a (rather strong) vinaigrette is tossed with the cauliflower immediately after roasting, along with the raisins, whose sweetness counters the anchovies beautifully.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put cauliflower in roasting pan, drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil and some salt and pepper; toss. Roast, turning once or twice, for 15 minutes or so, until cauliflower just starts to soften.

Remove pan, drizzle cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of vinaigrette, and toss. Roast, turning once, until a thin-bladed knife pierces a piece with little resistance, for 15 minutes. (Recipe may be cooled at this point, covered tightly and refrigerated for 2 days.)

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH CAPERS, OLIVES AND ANCHOVY
A fresh sweet pepper roasted at home can be revelatory. The flames of an outdoor grill, stovetop burner or broiler add a touch of smokiness, while helping to remove a pepper's tough skin. To prevent the pepper from overcooking, do not place it in a closed container after roasting, as some suggest - just let it cool uncovered on a plate. The skin will still come off and the flesh won't be mushy. The combination of sweet pepper and salty anchovy is classic. Serve this carpaccio-style, using a whole pepper to cover the plate, or arrange in alternating rows.

Steps:
- Roast the peppers: Place each pepper directly on the flames of a stovetop burner or under the broiler as close to the flames as possible. (Alternatively, place the pepper on a hot charcoal or gas grill.) Turning frequently with tongs, allow the skin to blacken and blister all over; About 10 minutes should suffice. Remove from flames, and leave to rest on a plate until cool enough to handle. Ideally, you should cook all the peppers at once rather than one at a time.
- Cut the roasted pepper in half lengthwise. Using a small knife, scrape away and discard seeds. Turn over and scrape away the blackened skin. Wipe with a paper towel, if necessary. Do not rinse - a little char is fine. Leave the pepper halves in one piece or cut into strips 3/4-inch wide. Place in a small bowl, toss with salt and pepper, red-pepper flakes, garlic and a little olive oil. Leave to marinate at least 10 minutes.
- Lay pepper halves or strips flat on a plate and add 3 or 4 anchovy fillets per serving. Garnish with a few capers and olives. Sprinkle with a little more salt and olive oil, and scatter basil leaves over the top.
ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH CAPER BROWN BUTTER
Turn boring cauliflower into a delicious side when you top it with a caper and garlic brown butter. I like to cut my cauliflower into slices instead of florets, so there is more flat surface area for roasting and the topping doesn't slide off.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Trim off the bottom of the cauliflower stem to create a flat surface. Place cauliflower head onto a cutting board with the stem side facing down; cut the cauliflower vertically into 1 to 1 1/2-inch thick slices. Remove any tough stem pieces. Cut the slices into smaller pieces, about the size of florets. Place on the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
- Roast in the oven for 10 minutes; flip pieces over and roast for 10 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, cut butter into 4 pieces. Melt in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until butter begins to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Butter will foam up, then subside. The butter should have a nutty aroma. Stir in garlic and continue stirring for 15 to 20 seconds. Add in capers and lemon pepper. Remove from heat.
- Spoon brown butter over the roasted cauliflower and serve.

Tips:
- Choose firm, ripe red peppers. Look for peppers that are deep red in color and have smooth, shiny skin. Avoid peppers that are wrinkled or have blemishes.
- Roasting the red peppers intensifies their flavor and sweetness. You can roast them in the oven or on the grill. If you're roasting them in the oven, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and roast the peppers for 20-25 minutes, or until they are charred and blistered.
- Once the peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly before handling them. This will help to prevent the skins from sticking to your hands.
- To remove the skins from the roasted peppers, simply peel them off with your fingers. You can also use a sharp knife to cut the peppers open and remove the seeds and ribs.
- Cauliflower can be roasted or steamed for this recipe. If you're roasting the cauliflower, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly browned.
- If you're steaming the cauliflower, place the florets in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water. Cover and steam for 5-7 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
- The caper vinaigrette is a simple but flavorful dressing that adds a bright, tangy flavor to the roasted vegetables. To make the vinaigrette, simply whisk together olive oil, vinegar, capers, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
- Serve the roasted red peppers and cauliflower with the caper vinaigrette while they are still warm. You can also top the vegetables with crumbled feta cheese or chopped parsley.
Conclusion:
This roasted red peppers and cauliflower with caper vinaigrette is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted vegetables are tender and flavorful, and the caper vinaigrette adds a bright, tangy flavor. This dish is also very easy to make, and it can be prepared in advance.
