ROMANESCO SAUTE

I bought this interesting looking vegetable at a local farmers' market. It is in the same family as cauliflower and broccoli. So you could substitute either one if more readily available. But it's so darn cute!

If you like cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower, you're sure to like Romanesco too! It has a slightly sweet, nutty taste. The fact that it looks so beautiful is a bonus. In this recipe it is simply blanched in boiling water, then pan-fried in butter and flavored with garlic and parsley.
