I\u2019m sure there must be a good a recipe for ocean cauliflower soup, and somewhere it is probably a delicacy.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll stick with cauliflower from the garden for now but happy to see more of these beautiful anemones on future dives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An interesting part of every deep dive is that shallow last third where physics and biology enforce coming up to a shallow depth to avoid decompression issues.
