Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups dry white wine
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup kosher salt
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (recipe originally called for 1TBS but it's way too much)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 head of cauliflower, leaves removed

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 475°. Bring wine, oil, kosher salt, juice, butter, red pepper flakes, sugar, bay leaf, and 8 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Add cauliflower, reduce heat, and simmer, turning occasionally, until a knife easily inserts into center, 15-20 minutes.
2. Using 2 slotted spoons or a mesh spider, transfer cauliflower to a rimmed baking sheet, draining well. Roast, rotating sheet halfway through, until brown all over, 30-40 minutes.
