Roasted Cauliflower with Brie Gratin Ingredients: 
 1 lb cauliflower florets
 ¼ tsp kosher salt
 ⅛ tsp white pepper, freshly ground
 6 oz cream sauce (see recipe below)
 4 oz Brie cheese, from a small wheel, rind on, triple-crème, cut into ¼-inch by 3-inch slices
 1 tsp white truffle oil, optional

Cream Sauce Ingredients: 
 10 oz heavy cream
 1 Tbsp Italian parsley, freshly chopped
 ¼ tsp kosher salt

Procedure:
Roasted Cauliflower with Brie Gratin:
Preheat oven to 400°F.

Place the cauliflower florets in a large bowl. Toss with kosher salt and white pepper.

On a sheet pan, arrange the cauliflower in an even layer.

Roast until light golden brown, only until cauliflower begins to achieve a tender state. Remove from oven and let cauliflower sit until it cools to room temperature.

Then place cauliflower into a bowl and toss with cream sauce (see directions below). Transfer to a stainless steel pan or cast iron au gratin dish, piling slightly.

Turn oven up to 450°F.

Place slices of Brie over the cauliflower and bake until dish is bubbling and golden-brown.

Remove cauliflower from oven. Let stand for 3 to 4 minutes, so that the cauliflower and cheese "come together."

Drizzle with white truffle oil, if you like.

Cream Sauce:
While the cauliflower is roasting in the oven, prepare the cream sauce. In a small sauce pan on the stovetop's medium heat, reduce the cream sauce from 10 oz to about 6 oz.

Once reduced, add the chopped parsley and salt. Stir to combine. Set aside at room temperature.
