cauliflower with brown butter, pear, sage, and hazelnuts

Are people still complaining about all the snow? I, for one, don’t really mind it (especially now that I finally have a sturdy and reliable pair of tall rubber boots). And when it’s in the 30s or 20s or teens outside, I like to cozy up with baked, buttery, meaty and cheesy things (not necessarily all at once) but also crunchy vegetably things. Like cauliflower dressed up with fruit and nuts and herbs. The recipe is from famous chef Andrew Carmellini and isn’t too much of a pain in the ass to make, especially if you’re all into brown butter and sage like I am right now (remember when I made another famous NYC chef’s gnudi?). Also good mixed with pasta and grated cheese.
