Cauliflower With Brown Butter Sage Pear And Hazelnut Recipes

LEMONY CAULIFLOWER WITH HAZELNUTS AND BROWN BUTTER

Steps:

• Place cauliflower in a steamer basket set over a large, lidded pot (preferably wider than taller) of boiling water. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the pot and steam until cauliflower is totally tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (You can check the doneness by piercing it with a paring knife or fork.)
• Meanwhile, heat butter and hazelnuts in a small pot over medium heat. Cook, swirling the pot occasionally, until the butter has melted and begins to brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Using a wooden spoon or small whisk, stir the butter, making sure all the milk solids and hazelnuts are browning evenly. Add olive oil and continue to cook until both the butter and hazelnuts are deeply golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Once the cauliflower is done, use a potato masher or large fork to gently crush it into bite-size pieces. Transfer cauliflower to a large serving platter or plate, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Spoon hazelnut mixture over the cauliflower, and top with chives and flaky salt. Serve alongside lemon halves for squeezing.

CAULIFLOWER WITH BROWN BUTTER, PEARS, SAGE & HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Tip: To toast hazelnuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a 350°F oven for 14 to 18 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned. While still warm, rub them against each other in a clean dishtowel to remove the papery skins. In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter until light brown and bubbly. Add the cauliflower, hazelnuts, and sage. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is browned and crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes more. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the pear slices and parsley. Gently toss to combine and warm the pears. Season to taste with more salt. Serve hot or at room temperature. Make Ahead Tips You can prep all the ingredients several hours ahead except for the pears, which will brown if cut too far in advance.

Steps:

• Place a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add hazelnuts and cook, shaking occasionally, until nuts begin to show dark brown spots and split open, about 15 minutes. Transfer hot nuts to a clean dishtowel and begin rubbing vigorously to remove skins. When cooled enough to work with, chop finely and set aside.
• Wipe any hazelnut remains from the skillet. Add butter and set over medium-high heat. Cook until foaming subsides and milk solids begin to turn brown. Add cauliflower florets, sage and hazelnuts. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 10-15 minutes, until cauliflower is tender and browned in spots.
• Remove core from pear and slice thinly. Add pear and parsley to cauliflower and stir in gently. Adjust seasoning and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice to stop the cooking.
• Add the cauliflower and parsley to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and toss until evenly coated with the brown butter. Warm over medium heat if needed. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.
