There's a Banana Republic everywhere now.

Here's an even simpler version of the pasta with cauliflower, currants, anchovies, etc! I'll definitely make this:

Orecchiette pasta with cauliflower

Take a head of cauliflower and cut into bite-sized florets. Boil these until they are al dente, then drain.

Soak 1/4 cup currants in 1/2 cup dry white wine.

Toast 2 tablespoons of pine nuts, set aside.

Toast 1/4 cup bread crumbs, set aside.

Boil some salted water and cook the orrechiette ("little ears") until it is al dente.

Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan. Chop up four anchovies and add to the olive oil, stirring until they dissolve. Toss in a few red pepper flakes. Add the currants and white wine, and simmer down for a couple of minutes. Add the al dente cauliflower and coat. Salt as needed. Add the pasta. Toss in the bread crumbs and pine nuts. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of parmesean or reggiano on the top and serve.

I notice that the recipe doesn't say how much pasta. From the other ingredients, I'd guess half a pound.
