Grilled Cauliflower Salad with Tahini Yogurt Sauce image

Seasoned with cumin and sumac and drizzled with a bright lemony sauce, this cauliflower salad is the perfect addition to your barbecue spread. We use a grill basket to prevent the florets from falling between the grates (but if you don't have one you can line the grates with foil instead). Topped with fresh herbs, walnuts and sultanas, this is sure to become a regular part of your summer rotation.

8 cups cauliflower florets (larger bite-size pieces; from about 1 large head)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
2 tablespoons tahini
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves and tender stems, chopped
