Blanching in Cauliflower

According to gapta (1947), meal (1959) and srivastava (1960), blanching is an essential operation to protect the heads from suborning and yellowing, so that they may not loose part of the flavor and attractive appearances. This operation may be done by drawing and trying of the leaves when the heads are formed. If is not possible, place a cauliflower leaf over the heads to protect it from the sun. This will induce milky white colour to the curd which may be sold at premium in the market.
