Creamy Mashed Cauliflower With Gouda
The secret to creamy mashed cauliflower is getting the water out first, press it hard in a colander with a plate, because any leftover moisture will make your mash watery instead of luxurious. The gouda does most of the flavor work here, so don't skip it or swap it for something mild.
