Topic: What to do with my Romanesco

Hi all,
Just received a lovely looking Romanesco in my veg box this morning and was just wondering if anyone had any ways of cooking it that would do it justice...?

Depends upon size - cut off the individual florets or cut it in slices to suit.

Steam till just tender - no more.

Delicious.

definitely cut into florets by cutting the stalks, then diners will be able to marvel at the shape.
I find the taste as robust as broccoli, so would go for a sizzle of oil, garlic and chilli tipped over the steamed veg if you wanted a bit more zip :)

Simplicity at its best!  Suits me, will eat it tonight... Thanks! ;D
