cauliflower

cauliflower
Noun
pl: cauliflowers

This term refers specifically to the edible curd of the plant. While it is a physical object, it is frequently treated as an uncountable mass noun when referring to it as a food ingredient or a general category of vegetable (e.g., "I love cauliflower").

When referring to the individual vegetable as a whole unit purchased from a store or grown in a garden, it is used as a countable noun (e.g., "two cauliflowers").
