The calendar says it’s fall and that means cauliflower is in season! This white crunchy vegetable can be preserved to use later in your favorite meals.
Here are some options:
- Pickled Cauliflower (or Brussel Sprouts) – National Center for Home Food Preservation
- Pickled Mixed Vegetables – National Center for Home Food Preservation
- Fall Garden Relish – National Center for Home Food Preservation
- Freezing Cauliflower – National Center for Home Food Preservation
- Drying Cauliflower – Preserve Smart, Colorado State University Extension
Use frozen cauliflower within 8-12 months for best quality.
There are no recommendations to can cauliflower as a plain vegetable. It would require pressure canning and the end product would not be palatable. It will be mushy, stronger in flavor and likely discolor.
