Description
Purple cauliflower is not just a pretty vegetable, it's great for healthy eating - more healthful even than the common white cauliflower we are used to seeing. The purple color comes not from a dye but from the presence of an antioxidant called anthocyanin which may help regulate body weight and have anticancer properties. For the greatest health benefits, eat it raw. The name cauliflower means cabbage flower, and the plant is in the same family, Brassicaceae.
