Comments: Drying the cauliflower florets slowly in a warm oven makes them crisp around the edges and chewy in the center. The cauliflower tastes best when served within an hour of its cooking.
Ingredients:
1 to taste salt and pepper
Directions:
With rack in the center, heat oven to 250 degrees. Quarter the head of cauliflower. Use a sharp knife, slice very thin pieces (about ½-inch) of the cauliflower straight down through the core. The florets need to stay attached to the core to remain intact. Trim away any core longer than 2 inches.

Transfer florets to an ungreased baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Transfer to oven, and let dry 45 minutes; carefully turn over each floret, and continue to dry until pieces are slightly shriveled, crisp and partly golden brown, about 1 hour more.

Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Wrap each head of garlic in foil, and place in a baking pan. Cook 45 to 50 minutes. Remove foil; set garlic aside until cool enough to handle. Using the flat back of a knife, press the soft, cooked garlic out of each pod onto a work surface. Combine all roasted garlic in a small bowl and purée. Place peppers on the open flame of a gas burner or under the broiler in your oven. Be sure to turn them occasionally to blacken on all sides. Transfer to a heat-resistant bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Set aside until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Removed charred skin from peppers. Cut lengthwise; remove ribs and seeds. Transfer peppers and garlic purée to the bowl of a food processor; process until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg, salt, lemon juice; process until well combined. With the machine running, slowly add oil through the feed tube until the mixture thickens. Add the remaining oil in a steady stream.
