Store the Keto roasted cauliflower and bearnaise sauce in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Why blanching? To soften hard to digest sugars, to have bright colored veggies when freezing.

To blanch vegetables, it’s quite easy:

• • • Bring a pan of water to the boil.
    • Prepare a bowl of iced water and a tray lined with kitchen paper.
    • Put the veggies in boiling water and blanch for about 2 minutes, depending on the size.
    • Remove with a slotted spoon (careful it’s hot) and plunge into the bowl of iced water.
    • Pat dry, et Voila, ready to freeze or use immediately in a recipe.
