Why is my cauliflower purple?
Online Answer
The edible portion of the cauliflower plant is the round head of compact flower buds called the "curd." The purple color in cauliflower is caused by the presence of anthocyanin, which is a harmless, water-soluble pigment in the curd. Sun exposure exaggerates its effect on the developing cauliflower head.
