Oven roasted is the best option, imo; try em with added fennel seed!

Took the idea from when we 1.5" slice, and then roast cabbage; almost the same method, bit longer cook.

half em, toss em in a skillet with butter and a touch of sesame oil followed by either tony’s seasoning, profit

That sounds incredible

With all these recipes if we had our American version of riot kitchen it would be steak, sprouts, and goya all day with a dash of harvested lib tear salt to bring out all those good flavors.

steak, sprouts, and goya

xtra mile: + a little bourbon and honey

2
TD_Covfefe_Crusader 2 points ago +2 / -0

Honey works great to tame the bitterness that some don’t like. Maple syrup also works well. I haven’t tried the bourbon but it sounds great.

3

I've done this method along with Par-boiling Blanching prior to coating and baking. The Par-boil blanching gets rid of a lot of the bitterness and greens them up nicely.

Can also slice in 1/2 and sauté in a skillet with Butter and Garlic.

Oh! You are correct on blanching. That's what I did. Used the wrong term. Salt boil for 2-3 min then chill in ice water.

Sautee halved Brussels sprouts with butter and oil til just browned, add some minced or sliced garlic with 30 seconds left. Add salt, 1/4 inch of chicken stock, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Braise in 400 degree oven til tender- around 20 minutes.

Do not steam or boil. Bletch.

Fry, bake, or grill, thems the choices with brussel sprouts.

Most people who hate them tried them steamed or boiled. I quite understand their antipathy

Dusted with dried chipotle and habañero powder in a balsamic reduction sauce.

Roast them in a cast iron skillet with sweet cream butter at 375 until tender.

Roast em!

Foil a sheet pan, destem and vertically half sprouts, add olive oil, stir to coat. Add salt, fresh ground black pepper, fennel seeds if you're extra.

Lawry's or Chacherre's if you're lazy.

@ 400 degrees, 20~ minutes, stir halfway through. Those loose and extra crispy single leaves are just a tasty silver lining; enjoy!

I don't necessarily have a special love for them, there's plenty of better tasting greens imo. I buy sprouts often because they last very long compared to the other greens and as a single men, I'm tired of wasting money on greens that rots in my fridge. Long live sprouts.

2
Cutter 2 points ago +2 / -0

Likewise. Well maybe a little ironically, since my mother always claimed that I hate vegetables. But I think that like people who think that fish has to be smothered in tartar sauce or lemon, some people don't realize that the flavor of the things we eat is dictated by their age and how they were raised. This leads me to speculate that if leftists were their only food source, cannibals would become vegans.

Most people just don't know how to cook them. There is a Cuban place, Luv Child, in Tampa that flash fries them and it's divine.

Flash fried, pan fried, baked hot and crispy just short of burning...pretty sure everyone who hates Brussels sprouts had a mom who boiled or steamed them.

2
Thrasymachus 2 points ago +2 / -0

I think everyone's mom in the 1980s boiled or steamed them; they were awful! Now, I eat them constantly (oven baked is my standard procedure, though the bacon-grease version I'm reading in this thread is intriguing).

1
league_of_fail 1 point ago +1 / -0

That fits my mom's approach to veggies and I thought for years after leaving home that I didn't like vegetables (I don't like Democrats, but that's another variety).

I do the pan-fry method in bacon grease, with bacon, and it is what turned my opinion on them.

I’m still confused. Was his reply basically his way of saying ‘I’m not allowed to comment on the specifics of the case under advisement from my lawyer’? I can see why he went with what he did.

He told Mr CIA Cooper that he can go fuck himself with that line of questioning.

He hates the line of psyop questioning from Mr CIA as much, as much as he hates Brussels Sprouts.

He agreed to answer questions in an interview to get paid because he's a grifter. NO REFUNDS, COOPER.

1
preferredfault 1 point ago +1 / -0

No, what he was saying is that the cops can't be believed.

Cooper tells him about what the police said his son did, and the sprouts comment is basically to mean that some people like them, some people hate them, it's a matter of opinion. So he was insinuating that what the police said was something to not take as fact.

It was just overall a stupid way to put it, and it shows you exactly what kind of classless low IQ level family we're dealing with here. The sad part is he actually thought he was being clever.

8
Scroon 8 points ago +8 / -0

It's weird because I understand what he meant, but everyone else seems to be having a problem with it.

Cooper was asking the dad what he thinks about people saying his son did all that bad stuff. So the dad answers with an example that's supposed to show that just because people say something that doesn't make it true.

It's not a very good example because hating Brussels sprouts isn't exactly universal, and the dad tries to clarify by saying that he hates Brussels sprouts because he wanted to say that he personally doesn't agree with the those statements.

It's a stupid way of answering, but I bet the dad uses that phrase often in his life, so it's his go-to retort when he's confronted with assertions he doesn't agree with.

Man, I hope all of you who enjoy this delicious veggie appreciate the work it takes to grow them. Gottta keep the sprouting alive enough to bloom flowers just to die for the stalk to live. Takes forever. Not tree forever but, don’t expect Brussels sprouts anytime soon.

Steamed lightly until they turn bright green, and served with a lemony Hollandaise sauce, they are fantastic.They are just delicious Little Baby Cabbages, and boiling them is just Little Baby Cabbages Abuse.

Brussel Sprouts are good for your testerone levels. Don't b a low t soy boy, eat your veg!

They keep great in the fridge as well, like weeks longer than broccoli. Split em in half, give em a quick deep fry, sprinkle of salt n pepper n serve with ur fav dipping sauce.
