Ms*Bindy's Note:

HeHe....I had to post this recipe just because the name was so amazing...plus it sounds pretty good! I think it means Cauliflower Rye Casserole. It is from Sundays at Moosewood.

• Total Time: 46 mins
• Prep Time: 1 mins
• Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1 cup beer
• 3 cups cubed rye bread
• 1 head cauliflower , cut into bite-sized florets
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon caraway seed
• 3 cups extra-sharp cheddar cheese , grated
• 4 eggs
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• ½ teaspoon ground coriander
• fresh ground black pepper

Directions:

1. At least an hour before cooking, pour the beer into a shallow bowl until it becomes flat.
2. Dry the bread cubes on a baking sheet in a 300F oven until they are crisp but not browned, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Saute the cauliflower in the butter with the carraway seeds until just barely tender.
4. Combine the bread cubes and cauliflower with the grated cheese.
5. Spread the mixture into a buttered 2-qt casserole dish.
6. Mix the eggs, mustard, coriander, and black pepper in a blender or by hand with the flat beer and pour the mixture into the casserole dish.
7. Bake at 350F for 30-45 minutes until puffed and golden.

We liked this a lot. I skipped the caraway seeds because I used seeded rye and I thought the kids might not like so many. I also skipped the butter because I steamed the cauliflower. Will make again.

Yummy comfort food! I made the mistake of using a very stout beer, which was a little much--so next time I'll use a lighter beer. Other than a little more punch from the beer than we would have liked, my DH and I loved this flavor combination. (My 4-year-old just picked out and ate the cauliflower--I think the beer and caraway were a little pungent for kid-sized taste buds). I will certainly keep and share this recipe!
