Recipe Notes

• Pan Placement: Be sure to don’t crowd the pan when spreading out your cauliflower florets. Ideally you desire a single layer the place not one of the florets are touching. This permits the cauliflower to roast and brown correctly.
• Garlic: I cherished the daring taste utilizing three garlic cloves, however if you would like it a bit milder you may reduce it again to 2 cloves. I like to recommend utilizing recent minced garlic for optimum taste, but when all you might have is jarred that’s tremendous.
• Parmesan: I extremely advocate freshly shredding the Parmesan cheese your self! It solely takes a minute with a field grater, and the recent taste enhance is value it. Nonetheless, if you wish to save time you should buy pre-shredded Parmesan and it’ll positively work.
• Salt: I used kosher salt as a result of I like a chunkier salt on roasted greens, however you need to use common desk salt if that’s what you might have! Most conversion charts will say to make use of barely much less desk salt if substituting for kosher salt.
