Instructions

Preparation Steps

Gather all the tools and ingredients for this recipe.
Cut the cauliflower into florets and discard the stems.
Dice the shallots.

Cooking Instructions

Roast the garlic.
Steam the cauliflower for 12-15 minutes or until fork tender. Be careful not to oversteam, as this will lead to a mushy puree.
While the cauliflower is steaming, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a sauté pan over medium-high heat.
Add the diced shallots to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Combine the steamed cauliflower, sautéed shallots, roasted garlic, balsamic vinegar, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a food processor or regular blender.
Process the mixture, occasionally stopping to push down the sides with a rubber spatula, until the cauliflower is fully pureed.
Taste the silky cauliflower puree and adjust the seasoning with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper as needed.
