11 Keto Cauliflower Rice Recipes

If you have never tried cauliflower rice or cauliflower couscous, as it is also called, you have to do it! It is a very light and delicious vegetarian recipe, which you can enjoy as such or as a side dish.

What Is Cauliflower?

Cauliflower is one of the healthiest vegetables due to its high vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, C, K, Omega 3, phosphorus, potassium, and many other phytonutrients), but also because it is a powerful antioxidant.

Health Benefits Of Eating Cauliflower

  • Due to the fiber in the composition, cauliflower is a vegetable that stimulates digestion. Therefore, frequently consumed, it facilitates intestinal transit and prevents digestive diseases.
  • Consumption of cauliflower improves cognitive functions, learning, and memory, thanks to the choline in its content, a vitamin with an essential role in the healthy development of the brain.
  • Certain active substances contained in cauliflower improve the activity of the liver, leading to the elimination of toxins and the purification of the blood. At the same time, cauliflower, consumed frequently, reduces the risk of heart attack and improves heart health.

How To Store Cauliflower

If you know how to store cauliflower, you can make healthy and delicious meals throughout the year.

  • Fridge – We clean the ends of stems and yellow leaves, wrap them in hanging foil, and put them in vegetable trays. The option for newspapers and bags is acceptable, but you must check your vegetables regularly by changing the packaging.
  • Freezer – For best results, boil cauliflower for no more than 5 minutes, then dry it well. Now put the cauliflower in a ziplock bag and freeze it for up to three months.

How To Clean The Cauliflower

  1. First, remove the leaves so that they reach the stem.
  2. With a knife cut around the stem. The cauliflower bouquets are attached to the main stem and have other stems.
  3. You can separate them by placing the knife between the flowers and the stem. Once you have removed the stem, you can easily open smaller bunches or leave them large, depending on how they will be cooked or the food in which they will be used.

Tips For Making The Perfect Cauliflower Rice

  • Cauliflower rice is easy to make with a food processor, but you can chop the florets by hand for a more ‘chunky’ rice or shred the cauliflower into small pieces with the coarse side of a box grater.
  • Make sure you don’t overcook the cauliflower rice since it will become too mushy. You will know it’s ready to serve once the ‘grains’ are heated.

What Does It Taste of Cauliflower Rice?

If you are curious about the flavor of homemade cauliflower rice, you need to know that because cauliflower has such a mild flavor, it can be easily compared to regular rice. However, cauliflower rice has a similar texture to regular rice, making it a great low-carb substitute that everyone will appreciate!
