no.

Broccoli and cauliflower are both cultivars of the species Brassica oleracea. Yes, they are genetically very similar. However, if you can picture that only a few thousand years ago there where only a few breeds of dogs, and now with human intervention and selective breeding there now exist hundreds of different types of dogs, you can figure out what I mean.

Broccoli can be described as looking like trees, while cauliflower can be described as looking like a cumulus cloud. Cauliflower is white in colour with green leaves surrounding it. Broccoli can be dark green or have a purple streak through it. Cauliflower has slightly fewer calories in the same serving size. There is no vitamin A in cauliflower, however there is in broccoli.


What is the difference between cauliflower and broccoli?

The type of flowering head is different. Broccoli has loose florets. Cauliflower is a more solid mass. That also means that the cooking times are slightly different. Plus there is the color. Broccoli tends to be green while cauliflower tends to be white, although there are purple varieties of both. In addition, there are 2 types of plants called broccoflower, and that is a hybrid. Preparation of those is closer to how you fix cauliflower. The one looks like a light green cauliflower, and the Romanesque variety can be light green (or sometimes purple) has very interesting fractal designs.
