Tea-Infused Cauliflower Steaks

Annelies Zijderveld's Cauliflower Steak Makes Tea a Main Course

Annelies Zijderveld's tea-infused cauliflower steak is a vegetarian-friendly dish perfect for barbecue season.

A recipe out of her own cookbook,'Steeped: Recipes Infused With Tea', Zijderveld's cauliflower steak pays homage to her visit to the Blue Hill restaurant in NYC. It was in Blue Hill where Zijderveld was served a colossal cauliflower steak she had to recreate. Being an avid tea lover, Zijderveld created a cauliflower steak that incorporates her enthusiasm for tea along with different herbs and spices. This recipe serves four and requires a 15-minute prep time along with a 25-minute cook time. Unfortunately this recipe demands a moderate cooking skill so it isn't achievable by just any cook.

Annelies Zijderveld's tea-infused cauliflower steak is featured in her recently released cookbook as well as posted on the Food Republic website.
