  • 1 medium Red Onion thinly sliced into rings
  • 1/2 cup Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1/2 cup Apple cider vinegar
  • 4 tbsp Sugar

Cauliflower

  • 1 Cauliflower head cut into florets
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil plus more for coating pan
  • 2 tbsp Parsley chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 tbsp Golden Raisins plumped in hot water then drained
  • 4 ounces Ricotta Salata
  • Salt
  • 2 tbsp Butter

Instructions

Pickled red onion

  • Bring vinegars and sugar to a boil, and pour over sliced red onion. Submerge onion rings and let cool to pickle for 24 hours.

Cauliflower

  • Heat oven to 425°. Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper flakes. Bake on a sheet pan for 15 minutes. Florets should be lightly browned and tender; if not, return to oven for a few additional minutes.
