Thanks, Tammy! That actually sounds really good. I think we’ll give them a try.

We love brussel sprouts at our house! I remove any brown outer leaves, cut off the very bottom of the sprout, cut them in half or quarters if they are rather large. Then I toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and throw them in a hot oven about 400 until browned.

Thanks for the suggestion and your support. I’m planning on a post about our camera, too (meant to respond to your last comment but I never got to it) Love Alton Brown, but don’t think I caught that episode. Will check it out!

I've never tried brussel sprouts either, but every time I've ventured into a new realm of cooking I turn to Alton Brown, and he never lets me down. Check out his episode on brussel sprouts on YouTube. Also, Every time you put a new post up I cheer a little bit. Go, Allison, go!

I’ve tried dozens of recipes and I can never get them to come out delicious. But I like the idea of them and keep trying anyway. The closest I’ve come is to hash them, then sauté in some olive oil and toss with crispy diced pancetta and fried capers, add a dash of salt and pepper to taste.

That kohlrabi/celeriac recipe sounds great! I was just as perplexed by kohlrabi when I first had some. We ended up just eating it raw in salad. I’m think Whole Foods or Wegman’s might have them … and if not, back to Produce Junction!
