Preparation

Cauliflower purée:

  1. Break or cut the florets into smaller, regular pieces (about 1½"), and place in the steamer insert.
  2. Bring about 1" of water to a boil in the steamer pot, add the insert, cover and cook for about 20 minutes or until very tender.
  3. In a food processor, blend the cauliflower, butter, and chocolate until smooth.
  4. Season with salt and pepper; set aside on a warm place.

Spring beans:
