How To Make cauliflower "potato" salad (version #2)

  • Step 1
    Place cauliflower in a large saucepan with 1 - 2" of water. Over medium-high heat, cover pan & steam until a sharp knife can be inserted into cauliflower easily. Drain cauliflower & put back into pan; set aside to allow steam to escape for 4 - 5 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Mix 2 Tbsp sweet pickle juice & the mustard together in a small bowl. Drizzle pickle juice/mustard mixture over hot cauliflower & toss to coat evenly. Refrigerate until cooled, about 30 minutes.
  • Step 3
    Mash cauliflower slightly with an old fashioned potato masher until you have small bite-sized pieces like diced potatoes.
  • Step 4
    Mix remaining 1 Tbsp pickle juice, chopped pickles, salt, pepper, celery seed, mayo, sour cream, onion, & celery in a large bowl; mix well.
  • Step 5
    Toss both mixtures together. Chill for at least another 30 minutes or longer to let flavors marry. Gently stir in diced boiled eggs just before serving.
