Our fresh Australian Cauliflower
Fresh 100% Aussie grown cauliflower.
Supporting local growers is important to ALDI. That’s why we have an Aussie-first supplier policy, ensuring local farms are the first place we go for fresh produce.
Where does our cauliflower come from?
Our cauliflower is as Aussie as it gets. We get ours from the same farms as other supermarkets, like Gingin in rural WA. We charge affordable cauliflower prices, because it’s who we are.
Meet Andrew of Bogdanich Farms.
Farming is in Andrew and his brother Michael’s blood. As third generation growers, their father taught them all aspects of farming. In the 1980’s, Andrew remembers waking up at midnight to harvest lettuce on their Gingin farm with his Dad under gas lanterns to ensure produce was freshly cut for markets before dawn. Bogdanich Farms have supplied ALDI with fresh broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, baby cos lettuce and iceberg lettuce since 2016 when ALDI first launched in WA.
Have a question about cauliflowers? We've got the answers
How do I pick a fresh cauliflower?
Look for cauliflower with white heads that are tightly packed. Don’t be put off by all the leaves. These are kept on in store to help protect the cauliflower heads.
What are some different ways to cook cauliflower?
Cauliflower’s flavour and texture makes it super versatile. Roast and serve as a big, chunky cauliflower steak. Shred as a rice substitute. Slice thinly for a white salad. Add to pasta. Blend as a base for hearty soups. Who said caulis aren't crowd pleasers!
How do I keep my cauliflower fresh?
Refrigerate in your crisper drawer loosely wrapped in a plastic bag.
Can you freeze cauliflower?
Yes you can! However, just like potatoes, cauliflowers have a high water content so, to avoid your frozen cauliflower going mushy, be sure to blanch them for a few minutes before storing in the freezer. Freezing your caulis is a great option because not only does it reduce food waste, it also makes your job easier as the cauliflowers are already prepped and blanched.
Can you eat cauliflower leaves?
Not only are cauliflower leaves edible, they’re a great source of iron too! Cauliflower leaves are a good alternative to other leafy greens such as bok choi or spinach and they can be treated just the same. Try washing carefully, then roasting your cauliflower leaves with oil and seasoning or frying them up in a stir-fry.
