Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; blanch florets for about 5 minutes, then scoop out with a skimmer or strainer and transfer to a bowl of cold water.
  2. Keep the pot of water simmering while you drain the cauliflower and cut it into small pieces.
  3. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and cook the garlic, red pepper flakes, and optional anchovies, if using, for about 30 seconds; stir in the tomatoes, a pinch of sugar, and salt to taste.
  4. Add capers and cauliflower and simmer until the tomatoes have cooked down a bit, 10 to 15 minutes; taste and adjust seasonings.
  5. Meanwhile, bring the pot of water back to a boil and add the pasta; cook according to package directions, about 7 or 8 minutes.
  6. Transfer cooked pasta to the skillet (with the sauce), along with 1/2 cup of the pasta water; stir to combine.
  7. Stir in the parsley and Parmesan or sprinkle them on top to garnish.
