Servings: persons

2 quarts whole milk
6 tablespoons kosher salt
2 heads cauliflower, trimmed into bite-size florets
1 pound oyster or chanterelle mushrooms, tough stems removed, torn into bite-size pieces
Fine sea salt
1/4 cup minced shallots
4 sprigs fresh thyme, plus extra for garnish
1 cup Amontillado or other dry sherry
3/4 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons chilled butter, diced

1
In a large saucepan, combine the milk, salt and 2 quarts water; bring to a simmer.
2
Blanch the florets until barely tender, about 2 minutes; the cauliflower should still have a little crispness and bite.
3
Drain well and transfer to a baking sheet to cool.
4
In a large (14-inch) saute pan, heat 3 tablespoons of the canola oil over medium heat.
5
Add the mushrooms to the pan in a single layer, allowing them to become browned and crisped on both sides, stirring as needed, about 10 minutes.
6
Season lightly with sea salt.
7
Add the shallots and thyme, and, if needed, more canola oil.
8
Saute until the shallots are tender, about 2 minutes.
9
Add the blanched cauliflower florets to the pan and mix well.
10
Add the sherry, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon and stirring until reduced to one quarter of the original amount.
11
Add the cream and allow it to reduce to a thickened sauce that coats the cauliflower.
12
Turn off the heat, and stir in the chilled butter, a few cubes at a time, to create a rich, velvety emulsion.
13
Transfer to a warmed serving dish and garnish with thyme sprigs.
14
Serve as soon as possible, while still hot.
