Delicous and Versatile Cauliflower Sauce

This versatile sauce is made from roasted or boiled cauliflower, which is then blended into a creamy and flavorful sauce that can be used in a variety of ways.

Cauliflower has become a popular ingredient in recent years due to its health benefits and its versatility in the kitchen. It is low in calories, high in fiber, and rich in vitamins and minerals, making it an excellent choice for a healthy and nutritious diet.

When it comes to making a cauliflower sauce, the possibilities are endless. You can keep it simple with just a few ingredients, or add in additional seasonings and spices to create a unique flavor profile. Some popular additions include lemon juice, garlic, herbs, and even dairy-free milk or cream to make it extra creamy.

To make a basic cauliflower sauce, you'll need to start by roasting or boiling the cauliflower florets until they are tender. Then, simply blend the cooked cauliflower with some unsweetened non-dairy milk, lemon juice, and seasonings of your choice until smooth and creamy. The result is a versatile and delicious sauce that can be used as a topping for pasta, vegetables, or anything else you can think of!

    Sounds really good! I do a similar thing for gravy. I make a big batch of cream of broccoli soup, take some of it for the gravy and add some extra spices, then I thicken it with flour and cornstarch. I puree the soup with a hand blender. It's much easier than putting it into a blender. Really worth having one!
