    Lovely, well balanced dish. Didn’t get the texture of the cauliflower quite right, did convection roast at 400 instead of baking at 425. I want to get it more crispy and crunchy next time.

    Everyone enjoyed this and went back for seconds. It also looked great, maybe because I used sugar plums which didn't bleed their color. The nuttiness of the roasted cauliflower contrasted well with the sweetness of the fruit. The yogurt seems to serve to tone all of these really strong flavors down just a notch and make it more balanced.

    As a way to use up leftover roasted cauliflower, this salad is an inventive option. The toasted sesame seeds bring out similar nutty flavor notes in the roasted cauliflower and contrast nicely with the sweet-tart plums and slightly bitter parsley leaves. If I'd had some, I might have served this on a bed of romaine or the crispy lettuce for a little more textural contrast. That said, I adore roasted cauliflower and think it's best nibbled straight from the oven - golden and a little crisp on the outside, piping hot and tender inside. In my book, cooling it down and dousing it with lemon juice and yogurt does it no favors. Tossing lovely ripe plum pieces along with the above as I tasted and adjusted the seasonings made both of them look bruised and beaten and turned everything faintly pink.
