Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet; toast until fragrant, about 10 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a kitchen towel; rub off the loosened papery skins. Coarsely chop the nuts; set aside.
Step 2
Trim the stems of the cauliflower so they sit flat, keeping the head intact. Bring several inches of water to a boil in a large steamer or in a pot fitted with a rack; add salt to taste. Steam the cauliflower until just tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
Step 3
Combine the butter and hazelnuts in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the butter turns brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and add the lemon juice and chives. Season to taste with salt. Whisk to combine. Pour over the cauliflower, and serve immediately.
