Cauliflower Recipe Tip -

Garlic

Flavor is imparted from oil released when garlic is cut. Chopping releases more oil and crushing the clove will impart the strongest flavor. The flavor of garlic can get stronger in foods after cooking and storing as the garlic oil has had a chance to releases naturally in cooking liquids.
