Once I was served godly Brussels sprouts at a restaurant. I realized then that every time I had some before these were cooked wrong. When I try to cook them it ends up either not cooked enough or too biter.

>> No.11081055

I cook them up and pour a little vinegar over them, it really dilutes it's fart-like taste and makes them workable

Steam them. That's it. Well, for me it is. They'll taste like little green candies. It blew my mind how good they got after steaming.
If that's not enough just make a sauce to drown them in. A bechamel with chicken stock and some gruyere should do the trick.

Cook them THE SAME DAY you buy them. Never let them get warm until you're prepping them.
Brussel Sprouts do well with assertive, savory flavors. There's a reason a lot of recipes involve cooking them with bacon or in bacon fat.
Overcooking them is a fatal mistake, they're probably the most delicate of the cabbage family of vegetables, but they are generally cooked in ways that are fast and have a lot of heat (steaming, broiling, frying).

You don't necessarily have to cook it though. Because it is a cabbage relative, you can use it as a substitute in Kimchi and Sauerkraut recipes.

Other than boiling or roasting in the oven, put them on a frying pan with some olive oil and your favourite assortment of spices and put a lid over them so the heat and steam gets trapped and the inside cooks as well jnstead of staying raw

>> No.11084339

>>11084320
If you're gonna cover the flavor for someone who can't down a veggie then a fish sauce reduction would probably be more offensive. Cover it in butter, oil, and salt if you're going to cover it. Ease back the amount as time goes on and they develop a taste for it.
