Tips for better Cauliflower Steak
- Rest it. Let cauliflower steak rest 0 minutes after cooking so the juices redistribute before you slice.
- Use a thermometer, not the clock. Grills have hot and cold spots — check doneness with an instant-read thermometer.
- Don't flip too early. Let a crust form so the cut releases cleanly before you turn it.
