Cauliflower Salad with Mayonnaise

Salad - Cauliflower Salad with Mayonnaise by Renata O. - Recipia

Cauliflower, a versatile and delicious ingredient, is often underestimated in the kitchen, but it can be transformed into a tasty and healthy dish. We start with preparing the cauliflower: we clean the cauliflower of leaves and stems, leaving only the florets, which we will carefully break into small pieces. These pieces should then be left for 10 minutes in cold water to clean them of impurities and make them crunchier. After soaking, we put the cauliflower pieces in a pot of salted water, which has been brought to a boil. We let the cauliflower boil for 10-15 minutes or until it becomes soft but without falling apart completely. After boiling, we remove the cauliflower from the water using a slotted spoon and let it drain well in a colander. It is important to let the cauliflower cool completely so that it does not alter the final texture of the dish. In the meantime, we prepare the mayonnaise. In a tall bowl, we put the fresh eggs, then pour the oil over them. Using an immersion blender, we submerge the device and turn it on at maximum speed. By lifting the blender a few times, in a few seconds we will obtain a perfectly emulsified and creamy mayonnaise. Once the cauliflower has cooled, we mash it using the blender until we achieve a fine composition but with a pleasant texture. We then mix the mashed cauliflower with the previously prepared mayonnaise, adding the crushed garlic, which will provide a flavorful and intense taste. We don’t forget to adjust the salt and pepper to highlight all the flavors. It is recommended that the dish be left in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving, to allow the ingredients to blend and the flavors to develop. This cauliflower salad with mayonnaise is perfect as a side dish or even as an appetizer. It can be served alongside toasted bread or fresh vegetables, being a healthy and delicious choice. Don’t forget to garnish it with fresh parsley or dill leaves for an attractive visual appearance. ENJOY YOUR MEAL!
