Cauliflower

Jamón Serrano Dust

Method

Cauliflower Preparation

  1. 1

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Char the Cauliflower

    Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are charred and tender.

Gala Apple Relish Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Relish

    In a bowl, combine the diced Gala apples, red onion, lemon juice, honey, and chopped parsley. Mix well and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Jamón Serrano Dust Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Dust

    In a small bowl, mix the finely chopped Jamón Serrano with smoked paprika until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the cauliflower is charred, remove it from the oven and place on a serving platter. Top with grated Cabot cheddar cheese, spoon the Gala apple relish over the top, and finish with a sprinkle of the Jamón Serrano dust. Serve warm.
