Best Grandmas Cauliflower Recipes
GRANDMA'S CAULIFLOWER
This is a dish that sounds odd but has long been one of my faveorites. The grandma in question is my great grandmother who apparently came up with the recipe (and published in just about every church cookbook I have found) but my memories are of my nana making it for me every time I was at her place for an evening meal. I have tried this with low fat mayo and with splenda and it works just fine for me that way but I am going to give the original recipe.

Steps:
- Put cauliflower into a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover with water and bring to boiling. Cook cauliflower until just tender, about 10 minutes. Do not overcook or the final product will be mushy. Drain water. Add milk, butter, salt, and pepper to the saucepan with the cauliflower. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring often to prevent milk from scalding, about 5 minutes.
- Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl until cornstarch has dissolved. Add to boiling milk-cauliflower mixture. Simmer until sauce starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.

GRANDMA NICKIE'S DEEP FRIED CAULIFLOWER
My Grandma Nickie used to make this 'treat' and we could never get enough. After many attempts, I've managed to copy her. Both my boys asked me to teach them to make it.
