Boiled and seasoned cauliflower simply with extra virgin olive oil is excellent and recommended as a winter side dish. You can also find purple cauliflower, want to know if there’s a difference between the two? Honestly, I didn’t notice any taste difference (maybe because I cooked them together), but after researching, I found out that the purple one is rich in anthocyanins also found in blueberries, which act as antioxidants providing anti-inflammatory and anti-aging benefits. I did my research on Google.
