Less Smell When Cooking Cauliflower

RE: Less Smell When Cooking Cauliflower Post By Linda Sue (Guest Post) (09/29/2008) I hope the vinegar trick works for the odor! I'd suggest cider vinegar, organic. I do know that vinegar added to many long-cooked dishes helps draw out the calcium and other nutrients into the broth...maybe it will do the same for smelly cauliflower, broccoli and collard greens?

Everyone in my house, except me loves the stuff. To me the only thing worse than eating it (I know, I am morally deficient) is the odor when it is cooking, it literally ruins my appetite for hours. Will the vinegar or vanilla ideas work for brocccoli as well?
