The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

I love mashed cauliflower and I love the flavor of fennel, so for me this was absolutely delightful! If you don't like the anise flavor of fennel, be aware that it will be noticeable. The buttermilk gives the mixture a good creamy texture. One note, make sure you drain the cauliflower really well when making mashed cauliflower, otherwise it will be watery. I usually transfer it to a baking sheet and dry it in the oven for about 10 minutes before mashing just to make sure I get the extra moisture out.
