Too much butter I used 1/2 stick and it tasted fine Be conservative with the spices
Made mine with a splash of light cream and some grated parmesan. Delicious!
Used the general outline of the recipe - simmered CF in salted water, drained and processed in food processor with a few tablespoons of butter. Skipped the other flavorings. WOW! Fantastic mashed potato substitute.
I was looking for something different to do with cauliflower- I had a head of purple cauliflower- followed the cooking directions but used half water & half oat milk. Reduced the butter as other commenters suggested. Used Florida seasoned pepper, a very little bit of salt, nutmeg & paprika. No need for the processor- used immersion blender. Served under roasted halibut with a tomato curry sauce. Yum!
I added some Greek yogurt. Delicious.
