Preparation
Steam or boil cauliflower florets until very tender, about 10–12 minutes. Drain well. In a food processor or blender, add cauliflower, butter, garlic, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Stir in fresh herbs. Keep warm.
In a small bowl, mix softened ghee with rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub evenly over both sides of each lamb chop. Let sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes before cooking.
Heat a cast iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the lamb chops and sear 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust time for thickness or desired doneness). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Spoon cauliflower mash onto plates. Top with lamb chops. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and extra fresh herbs if desired.
In the third episode of Ahead of Alzheimer's, Emily Kaplan speaks with Florida Department of Elder Affairs Secretary Michelle Branham about why this is a pivotal moment in Alzheimer's care. Drawing on more than two decades of work in policy and advocacy, Branham explains that advances in blood-based diagnostics, emerging treatments, and lifestyle interventions are transforming Alzheimer's from a disease with few options into one where earlier action can meaningfully improve quality of life.
Branham argues that early diagnosis is essential—not only because it allows patients to access new therapies while they remain effective, but also because it gives families more time to plan, receive support, and remain at home longer. She discusses Florida's efforts to expand caregiver resources, invest in Alzheimer's research, and build a proactive model of care that benefits both patients and the healthcare system by delaying the need for costly institutional care.
The conversation also explores the future of Alzheimer's policy, including the importance of routine cognitive screening, identifying individual risk earlier in life, and expanding access to new diagnostic tools. Branham describes the current moment as a rare opportunity to reshape how the disease is managed, emphasizing that combining earlier detection with better care, research, and prevention strategies can give patients and families more time, more choices, and more hope.
