Pickled cauliflower is a traditional Italian-style antipasto of crunchy cauliflower florets in an irresistibly tangy, zesty brine.
What Is Pickled Cauliflower?
Pickled cauliflower is a traditional antipasto that is made with fresh cauliflower that is pickled, or cured, in a tangy vinegar brine with select seasonings like garlic, salt and sugar. Some pickled cauliflower is classified as mild or hot, so that you can choose the level of heat. The pickle recipe is pleasantly acidic and often a little sweet with that tart and tangy vinegar bite. People sometimes refer to this flavor profile as sweet-and-sour. Cauliflower is a crisp, bold and briny refrigerator pickle that can be snacked on straight from the jar, but also served up as a garnish to sandwiches, grain bowls, leafy green salads, antipasto salads, cheese boards and more.
