    You are risking your food porn king crown.

    Never

    Ice cream slider, ice cream, white choc bar, raspberry sauce between a split donut. Had another later in the day with vanilla, white choc and caramel as well

    Okay, I think when I told you before you made it that it sounded good... I lied. Definitely lied. That looks sick. You just turned one of my favorite veggies into the most unappealing thing in the world. MSG & Gelatin... gag. lol. Sorry, not sorry.


    Gag.

    No worries, cauliflower already has glutamate in it, I was just boosting the total amount with MSG, instead of gelatin you can use agar agar

    You can have my awful nitrate-ridden salty meat sticks of death when you pry them from my cold dead hands.

    Hear, hear! But gotta admire your creativity and frankenfood abilities!

    Any idea if you could make this with pectin instead of gelatin?

    EDIT: Never mind, just saw the agar agar substitute. Thanks!

    That was the grossest display of cauliflower I have ever seen... In other news during our vegetarian days we tried a marinated carrots recipe that you then grill the carrots and serve them hot dog style. It was actually yum. I still crave them and now I allow myself hot dogs but sometimes I just want the carrot dog that's how good they are. Look for a recipe containing peanut oil, soy sauce and other stuff I don't recall, I think ginger or something...anyway accept no subsitutes.

    NO raw carrot or plain roasted or grilled plain carrots...NOT THE SAME. It must be this marinated thing and they end up looking a lot like hot dogs too..cause the marinade browns them, then they taste just superly oddly yummy.

    I'm just saying, nothing wrong with an all beef jumbo wiener in my book, but if your gonna screw around with hot dogs, like if your minds made up "no more weiners for me, ma", (not OP but some of you other folks)...THIS is the way to go.

    Over the weekend I was thinking myself, self if you were ignorant and illogical about nutrition and wanted to totally bastardize an “unhealthy” food item, what item and how would you do it? The answer was making a cauliflower hot dog. Low fat and low cals, mmmmm

    The recipe scales as follows;

    Cauliflower – 100%
    Salt – 1%
    Gelatin – 1%
    Transglutaminase – 1.5%
    MSG - .5%

    Spices to taste

    1. Roast cauliflower

    2. Bloom gelatin then melt for 20 sec in the microwave

    3. Puree roasted cauliflower with all the other ingredients

    4. Take puree and roll it in plastic wrap, forming a hot dog shape, twisting both ends tight

    IMG_20130713_181232.jpg

    5. Refrigerate 5+ hrs to let transglutaminase set (If super hungry, you could pop the plastic wrapped cauli dogs into a 130 degree water bath for 15 min to set the transglutaminase)

    6. Sear both sides and plate

    This was served on a potato roll with whole grain mustard and cauliflower “cheese”

    Note: Please no pointing out how unhealthy it still is, I understand it’s made of evil white carbs, but still it’s better than nitrate riddled franken meat ;)

    America called, and is asking that you leave this country. On your way out, please take mashed cauliflower, cauliflower pizza crust, and tofu dogs with you.
    Never speak about this abomination again.

    I am very content with the cutting room floor remnants, combined with other carcinogens and poisons, that make up my all-American hotdog. All hail our Gods, Oscar Meyer and Joey Chestnut, and may they be merciful upon you for this wretched blasphemy.
