Brussel sprouts ARE NOT your enemy!!

fable · #1 (**permalink**) Dec 25, 05

seriously, they can be super tasty! Cut in half, wedge cut out the cores. Blanch in salted water for a bit (pull them out in a few minutes) Rinse quickly under cold water(not too much!) In a sauce pan, put together some whole cumin seed(a star anise pod doesnt hurt) pat of butter, maple syrup and a shot of s+p, glaze sprouts with the mixture, toss in hot oven before the heads come over for chow, for a 8-10 minutes + BOOYAH!! :)

^I used to think they were evil too and resisted them until last night I had some that were really good!

They were done up with garlic butter and almonds...soooo tasty!

Mushrooms = the best

Sprouts = meh...can be good if mixed with right ingredients

Broccoli = might aswell eat your own vomit

now that sounds fucking tasty! Throw down some chantrelles for the mushroom element, brown butter, and sage alongside the pancetta and chestnuts and id be a happy camper.

I just toss the brussels in a bit of olive oil, salt n peppa, and some sliced red onion for flavor and then roast them in the oven. Then when they are done throw a few fresh bacon bits on top! YUM they are delish!
