I love my brussel sprout straight with just butter and salt and pepper. To prepare brussel sprouts I trim the stem end and remove any discoloured or shreaded outer leaves. I cut each sprout in half and rinse them well in the strainer. I put them in the steamer basket in a pot of water and steam until tender. NOTE: a lot of people cook their sprouts whole. I don't like doing it that way because they can get over cooked and occasionally you will get sprouts that have been harvested in the rain. If they are harvested in the rain, you may find a couple of moldy leaves in the center of a sprout. If you cut them in half before cooking, they cook faster and you don't get any nasty surprises.

I believe Pioneer woman just had a recipe.

We like them simple, with cheese sauce and NO ONIONS/GARLIC.

I'm with you. No garlic pollution. Just the classic taste of the sprouts without adulteration.

Add salt to taste. My 7 year old grandson and his parents would not normally touch brussel sprouts until I started doing them this way.
Just realized that I live just east of you phyllyog. |
My son, the chef, cleans and trims the sprouts, cuts them in half and par cooks them. In another pan he frys a couple of slices of bacon til crisp....remove bacon....chop onion fine....about 3 T - depends on how many you have. cook onion til barely browned in the bacon drippings.....then placed drained, par cooked sprouts into frying pan saute with onions til desired doneness (!) a little salt and pepper. Even confirmed Brussel Sprout haters ate these and loved them.
