Cauliflower Salad and Salsa over Sole: aka is this dish mediterranean?

Cauliflower Salad with Green Olives and Capers is the name of the recipe in Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. The dressing, also from that book, was a zesty mustard vinagrette with a hardboiled egg yolk mixed in to give it extra substance. Chef Caroline used black kalamata olives, and she forgot a key ingredient-the 2 cups of chopped watercress. Oh well, nobody noticed! But that would have added a nice spicy note to balance out the earthiness of the raw cauliflower.
This saucy sole was prepared using a combo of two recipes (p. 314 & 315) from Fish Forever: The Definiteve Guide to Understanding, Selecting, and Preparing Healthy, Delicious, and Environmentally Sustainable Seafood by Paul Johnson, who owns a fish shop in Berkeley. That is a really long title, and all that typing tired me out. Good night y'all. Signed, Mrs. C
