Instructions
- Wash, dry and remove the stem and any outer leaves from the cauliflower. Cut the head of cauliflower into quarters, then trim out the inner core from each quarter.
- Break apart the cauliflower into large florets using your hands. If the core is tender, you can chop it into pieces and add it with the florets as well.
- Place the cauliflower florets into a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, making sure the container is only ¾ full. Depending on the size of your processor and the size of the cauliflower, you might need to do this in batches.
- Process the cauliflower in the food processor using 1-second pulses until it’s broken down into rice-sized pieces.
- If you notice any larger pieces of cauliflower remaining after most of the pieces are rice-sized, take these out and set them aside. Transfer the riced cauliflower into a bowl, add the large pieces back in and process again until they’re riced-sized as well.
- Once the cauliflower is in rice-size pieces you’re ready to use it in any recipes that call for cauliflower rice.
- If you want to cook it up and use it like regular rice, simply add a little oil to a sauté pan. Once warm, add the cauliflower and a little sea salt to the pan. Sauté until it's warm and golden brown in some spots, about 5-10 minutes.
- Raw (or cooked) cauliflower rice can be stored in an air-tight container the fridge for for 2-3 days or in the freezer for 1-2 months.
Notes
- If you don’t have a food processor, you can use the large holes of a box grater to grate the cauliflower into small pieces.
