1-2 heads cauliflower, core removed, cut into florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 bunch chives, minced for garnish
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. On a sheet tray, spread 1/4 of the florets with the oil, season with salt and bake until caramelized, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, combine remaining cauliflower, milk and half a teaspoon of salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring mixture to a simmer, cover, and cook until cauliflower is tender, about 20 to 25 minutes. Strain cauliflower from milk mixture, reserving both. Transfer cauliflower to a blender. Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and butter to the blender. Add half of the reserved milk liquid. Secure top on blender and puree mixture until smooth.
