Cauliflower: Selecting Tips |
| |
|
Look for Cauliflower that is white or creamy white, with tightly packed heads without loose or
spreading florets. Because Cauliflower usually is film wrapped, it’s important to examine
the greens that wrap the underneath and sides of the Cauliflower. These “jacket leaves”
should be green and fresh looking, without yellowing or withering. Firmness of the bottom is another
freshness indicator. Pass on the head if it is soft underneath. Variations in head size do
not affect quality or flavor.
