How To Make Cauliflower Rice

• You can’t beat the convenience of pre-cut or frozen cauliflower rice, but the shelf life of pre-cut fresh life is short, and the frozen is fine, but they use more stems and less florets. For the best taste I prefer to make it myself, it’s so fast and easy to make with a food processor!
• To make cauliflower rice, in batched place a few florets in the food processor and pulse a few times until it resembles rice. You don’t want to over process it, 3 times is usually enough. You don’t want to overcrowd the food processor or it will require you to pulse it more, resulting in over-processed pieces.

How To Cook Cauliflower Rice

• To cook, I simply saute a little oil in a skillet and add the cauliflower until tender.
• If cooking in a sauce, you can the cauliflower rice once the sauce is simmered and ready, as it only takes about 5 to 8 minutes to cook the cauliflower.
• You can also roast riced cauliflower in the oven, which gives you a wonderful nutty flavor. See my Roasted Cauliflower Rice recipe here.
