Freshly ground white pepper | ||
¼ | cup | Grated Parmesan cheese |

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 F.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until two-thirds done. Strain, saving both the liquid and the cauliflower in a small casserole dish.
3. Heat the butter in a saucepan. When bubbling, add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly add the cauliflower liquid and stir until slightly thickened. Season with salt, white pepper, Parmesan and paprika. Pour over the cauliflower in the casserole.
4. Bake in preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with the bread crumbs and almonds and serve immediately. Note: This dish can be prepared in advance through step 2. Bring it to room temperature if refrigerated and bake in preheated 400 F oven 10 to 15 minutes.
