icmenuiserie Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I am amazed at how expensive cauliflowers have been of late...The highest price for one I have seen was 2.95€ each in Intermarche....am I really writting this post??? Was wondering if they're just expensive in these parts (16) or is it all over the place?? Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suein56 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 No, she is trying to bump up her number of posts!But to answer the question - here in the very south of 56 cauliflowers have been of superb quality and really cheap recently ie 1.15€ each, so we have been having cauliflower cheese quite often.Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icmenuiserie Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Cor blimey can't bemieve 5damn French keyboard - believethe price difference. I am refusing to buy them til they come somewhere near the 1.50€ mark, I am dreaming of cauliflower cheese.....Never thought of Lidl, normally go to Leaderprice but they've been dear too, although not as high as Chez Inter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Don't forget to bend the outer leaves over to protect the creamy head of the cauli from the sun when you grow your own. YAWN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lassitude getting the better of you?I like cauliflower, but unfortunately I usually get it in school dinners... covered in 'cheese', possibly homing cheese (well it certainly comes back all afternoon).

chris pp Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Thing is, Sue, they are grown in your neck of the woods, they aren't grown commercially down here, although it does seem a lot for transport.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardian Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 [quote user="icmenuiserie"] sausages...tried growing my own one year with no success[/quote]Try pricking them before covering with soil. Water well and earth up as they start to poke through in the Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meg Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 What about for the sausages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icmenuiserie Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 growing sausages is a nightmare, planted some cocktail sausages once and never saw them again LOL! Good tips about growing caulis, got loads of horse manure from my horses so will put loads in! Thanks Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
