Comments on: cauliflower and brussels salad http://smittenkitchen.com/2007/01/take-my-wife/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 09:13:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Abby http://smittenkitchen.com/2007/01/take-my-wife/#comment-600637 Abby Wed, 16 Mar 2011 17:51:31 +0000 http://smittenkitchen.com/2007/01/take-my-wife#comment-600637 I made about a 3/5 recipe of this last night. (I'm just cooking for my fiancé and I, so most recipes get scaled down.) He was worried that the acidic flavors in the butter would overwhelm the veggies, and I find boiled veg rather boring, so I roasted them instead at 375º for about 40 minutes and they were amazing! Like Sarah above, I substituted thyme for marjoram. I also chopped the capers just a bit so they would stick to the veg better. I had a huge pile of them with dinner last night, and just finished the leftovers with my lunch. Deb, I LOVE your vegetable recipes! I made about a 3/5 recipe of this last night.

It was amazing, and I think it'd be great on salmon too. I have a lump of the butter saved in my freezer to test that out in the near future.

I'd rather not boil; could the roasting go with the sauce? Or does the boiling allow you to use this particular sauce? What about roasting and THEN using the lemon butter caper sauce?

I LOVE brussels, and am pretty sure the boyfriend's getting tired of making me batches and batches of his cream+almond brussel sprouts, so this is being emailed to him asap. cheers Deb! yum yum yum, just browsing through (while waiting for my light wheat bread to proof) and this looks delicious!

He suffered for weeks, I'm afraid. Sadly, this recipe exacerbated my husband’s terrible chronic bloating condition. He suffered for weeks, I’m afraid.

I didn't have the two varieties of cauliflower, so just used one large head of the plain old white kind. But that caper butter was fabulous, and the whole thing melded really nicely. I'm looking forward to having this for lunch tomorrow. Wonder if it's gonna make me, um, gaseous. I just made this tonight, with a pork loin, and it was fantastic!
