Brussel Sprouts
The token veggie that children refuse to eat. Why is this? Are they so extremely healthy that they must be shoved down the throats of all children across the world? According to wikipedia if cooked longer than 8 minutes a chemical is released that smells like sulphur….and I would assume to taste like sulphur.
Brussel sprouts are high in vitamin A, vitamin C, foilc acid and fiber, and contain chemicals that may prevent colon cancer.
Anyway, I roasted some brussel sprouts at 400 F with a drizzle of EVOO and some s&p for about 10 ish minutes….until they sizzled. They were fabulous. Since I was a child I’ve always thought they smelled awful, but I think that’s because my mother steamed them until you might be able to smash them into a paste.
Now I think they are pretty darn tasty.
DO IT!
