Step 1

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth and salt to a boil. Add the cauliflower; bring back to a boil.

Step 2

Cover, reduce the heat to low and steam for 20 minutes, or until cauliflower is very tender.

Step 3

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cauliflower to a food processor. Add 3 tablespoons of chicken broth from the pot, along with the butter. Process until smooth.

Step 4

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground pepper. Add thyme and process until just combined.

Chef’s notes

Prepare the mashed cauliflower as directed, then cool and refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

When ready to serve, reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally, or microwave in a covered dish, stirring every minute.

For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
