- 1 cup dry crab boil seasoning (such as Zatarain's or Old Bay)
- 1⁄4 cup kosher salt
- 2 yellow onions, quartered
- 6 garlic cloves
- 3 lemons, halved crosswise
- cauliflower, cored, trimmed into 2-inch florets

directions
- Combine crab boil, salt, onions, garlic, and 6 quarts water in a large pot. Squeeze juice from lemons into pot and add lemon halves. Set pot over high heat and bring liquid to a boil. Cook for 10 minutes to let flavors meld. Using a slotted spoon, remove onions, garlic, and lemons from broth; discard. Return liquid to a rolling boil.

- Arrange room-temperature or chilled cauliflower on a platter with cocktail sauce for dipping.
