Cauliflower With Cream Sauce

Take off the green leaves and the stalk of the cauliflower. Wash, and put on to cook in boiling water. Boil gently for half an hour. Turn off the water, and add one pint of milk.; one pint of boiling water and one table-spoonful of salt. Simmer half an hour longer. Take up with a skimmer, being careful not to break it. Pour over this a cream sauce, and serve.

Escaloped Cauliflower

Cook the cauliflower one hour in salt and water. Drain, and break apart. Put a layer of the cauliflower in an escalop dish, moisten it with Bechamel or cream sauce, and sprinkle in a little grated cheese. Put in another layer of cauliflower, and continue, as directed before, until all of the vegetable is used. There should be two table-spoonfuls of grated cheese and one pint of sauce to each head of cauliflower. Cover with bread crumbs and cheese, and dot with bits of butter. Bake half an hour in a moderate oven.
