Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 3 cups milk
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
• 0.25 cup butter
• 0.5 cup cold water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Put cauliflower into a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover with water and bring to boiling. Cook cauliflower until just tender, about 10 minutes. Do not overcook or the final product will be mushy. Drain water.

Step 2

Add milk, butter, salt, and pepper to the saucepan with the cauliflower. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring often to prevent milk from scalding, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Mix water and cornstarch in a small bowl until cornstarch has dissolved. Add to boiling milk-cauliflower mixture. Simmer until sauce starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
