Romanesco is part of the cruciferous vegetable family as it's similar to cauliflower, only with a slightly more delicate flavor. If you look at a head of romanesco you can see its beautiful natural fractal pattern—a Fibonacci spiral! Serve this vegetable side dish topped with fresh pomegranate arils as part of a holiday meal.

Fantastic. The flavor of the paprika stands out enough against the veg while the sauce is the perfect compliment. I’ll be tempted to try this combination with roasted broccoli or cauliflower.
