Here are some tips for storing cauliflower to keep it fresh:

- Choose cauliflower with firm, tightly packed heads.

- Avoid heads with any signs of bruising or damage.

- Remove any leaves from the cauliflower head.

- Wrap the cauliflower head in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator.

- If you are storing cauliflower for more than a few days, you can blanch it before freezing. To blanch cauliflower, bring a pot of water to a boil and then add the cauliflower head. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender but still crisp. Drain the cauliflower and then cool it immediately in ice water. Once the cauliflower is cooled, pat it dry and place it in a freezer-safe bag.

- Cauliflower is a versatile vegetable that can be used in a variety of dishes. It can be roasted, steamed, boiled, or stir-fried. Cauliflower can also be used in salads, soups, and stews.
