Blanching is performed to maintain a white color to the head. If cauliflower is not blanched, the head may turn green or yellowish brown. Blanching is performed when the head has 2 to 3 inches of white curd. The outer or wrapper leaves are wrapped and tied over the head. There are self-blanching cultivars (e.g.,’Fremont’).
