M.F.K. Fisher Memorial Cauliflower Casserole
- 1 cauliflower (about 2 1/2 lb.) or 2 quarts cauliflower florets
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground pepper
- 1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded gruyere cheese
- Salt
- Break cauliflower into florets, discarding core and leaves. Rinse florets.
- In a 4- to 5-quart pan over high heat, bring about 3 quarts water to a boil. Add cauliflower and cook until just tender when pierced, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Drain cauliflower and arrange in a shallow 1 1/2-quart casserole.
- Add cream to the empty pan and boil over high heat until it's reduced to 1/2 cup, stirring often, about 5 minutes.
- Drizzle cream over cauliflower, sprinkle with pepper, and cover evenly with cheese.
- Bake in a 425u0b0 oven just until cheese is lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Add salt to taste.
