Put off cauliflower for life after tonight

[Changedusernameforthis2]

Lovely friend popped over earlier as I've been feeling low. She brought dinner but cooked it at my house. She made roasted cauliflower like the bang bang cauliflower you get at restaurants. Delicious. But oh my god. The smell in my house is now 🤢 I'm actually feeling nauseous just from the lingering smell uggghhh

Your poor dog but that is very funny!

I also read on here about worms in cod and other fish and it took me ages to be able to eat them again 😔

Love 'maggotous' 😂😂😂

I like cauliflower but always cook it to an Indian recipe.

As for cauliflower steaks in restaurants - ludicrous price.

I'm liking "maggotously" very much.

I love cauliflower but it is far from at its best at the moment. I only buy it if it passes a sniff test in store.

Jesus christ if this is bothering you enough to write on Mumsnet about it then I guess you have a pretty cushy life. Get a grip love!

God I love kale. Possibly my favourite vegetable. Bit of salt, bit of olive oil, cook it in the oven until it’s crispy…

I have pizza cooking in the oven as I write this and I would swap it for kale in a heartbeat.

The worst veggie for me is celeriac, it smells like puke.

I used to love cauliflower and broccoli. Only rarely cook them now, for hubby.
Give me a pea or carrot any day. 😬

You need a Price's chef/kitchen candle.

Hope you get rid of the smell soon @Changedusernameforthis2
I'm relieved you're only posting about the smell of cauliflower, however!
I wasn't sure whether to read your post after seeing the title of your thread - I was worried you were going to post about finding something awful in your cauliflower😬

There’s a massive field of kale which the farmer has left for two years where I walk the dogs. On a wet warm day the smell is extraordinary, in a not good way.

I had a very similar self-inflicted experience. Threw a few sprouts into a slow cooker stew. What an idiot. A putrid smell of fields/ death/ farts got into every corner, soft furnishing... and I'm sure through the walls into the neighbours. Eughhhhh....

Oh fuck off you fun sponge

Don't worry, the cauliflower-induced farts should drown it out 😂

😂😂😂😂😂

It wasn’t the stage musical of Amelie, was it, which a song about figs?

I think that's cabbage you are talking about, boiled to a pulp, and taking me right back to school dinners. Never had any smell or antisocial aftereffects from cauliflower.

Nope definitely cauliflower..it's faded now but, never again!

I had a fig tree but it only got to year 3 before it sadly perished .
I read the growing instructions that you cannot eat any fruit year 1.
Year 2 it was rubbish but I did wonder why it went straight to fruit with no flowers .
I didn't know about the wasps
Good job I never got to eat any bloody fruit

Omg, can't believe this thread has appeared in active

I thought I'd try roasted cauliflower tonight and it's absolutely rank. The whole house stinks, the air fryer seems tainted. I love cauli as well. Like OP it made me feel sick.

Sorry my post was horrible, I can only apologise😳

Tastes like pork as well apparently. Before they rot. Presumably rotting corpses would taste like rotting pork

Jesus Christ if this post is bothering you so much why reply to it?
