Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
Step1
Peel away the leaves at the stem.
Step2
Wash the head of cauliflower and trim away any brown spots by scraping them off with your knife.
Step3
Place the cauliflower on your cutting board and hold it firmly in place by the "head" or top.
Step4
Chop off and discard the stem of the cauliflower, removing all parts of the stem that you do not wish to cook.
Step5
Slice at the base of each stalk, separating the head into manageable pieces.
Step6
Decide how big or small you want the pieces to be for your dish. Either chop from the bottom of the stalk working up to the sprout, or slice the stalk lengthwise, leaving longer pieces.
Step7
Set aside for cooking once you have the desired size.
