Yield serves 12 to 14

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup hazelnuts (filberts)
3 small or 2 large heads cauliflower (about 3 1/2 pounds)
Coarse salt
10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet; toast until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a kitchen towel; rub off the loosened papery skins. Coarsely chop the nuts; set aside.
  • Trim the stems of the cauliflower so they sit flat, keeping the head intact. Bring several inches of water to a boil in a large steamer or in a pot fitted with a rack; add salt to taste. Steam the cauliflower until just tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
  • Combine the butter and hazelnuts in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the butter turns brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and add the lemon juice and chives. Season to taste with salt. Whisk to combine. Pour over the cauliflower, and serve immediately.
