- 1/4 head cauliflower, broken into small florets
- 2 tablespoons miso paste
- 2/3 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar (optional)

Preparing/Cooking:
- Melt the margarine with the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat.

- Stir in flour, and cook for one more minute.
- Remove from heat, and set aside.
- Bring one inch of water to a boil in a saucepan.
- Add cauliflower, and cook for 10 minutes, or until very tender.
- Drain, and place in a blender along with the onion and garlic mixture, miso paste, yeast, cider vinegar, and red peppers, if using.
- Process until smooth, adding a bit of water if necessary to get things moving.
- Pour the blender mixture back into the skillet, and turn the heat to medium.
- Stir together the cornstarch and rice milk; mix into the sauce.
- Bring to a simmer, and cook to desired thickness.
