Karifurawaa no sujoyu-itame / stir-fried cauliflower in vinegar soy sauce

A versatile stir-fried cauliflower dish that can be cooked and served in a number of ways. Steam briefly for a crunchy mood changer, or steam longer for comforting tenderness. Keep the heat level relatively low to maintain the white appearance, or raise heat somewhat to enjoy the toasty note of soy sauce. Serve hot as a side dish, or serve cold as an instant pickle ...
