For the best buy, choose cauliflower that is firm and heavy with a white and creamy color.
To prepare cauliflower, wash and trim florets from stalks.
To keep fresh, store in the refrigerator, unwashed in a plastic bag, for up to 1 week.
Cauliflower contains vitamin C, which is good for fighting colds and healing cuts.
Easy Additions

Add cauliflower to any veggie stir-fry recipe.
