When I was a child I could never have imagined telling anyone that one of my favorite veggies was Brussels sprouts. But, of course, that’s because I was served those soft mushy boiled things that smelled like old sweat socks. But then, one day, I was lucky enough to discover what oven-roasting does to a little sprout. And that’s all it took!
My favorite way of fixing them is to oven roast until just tender, then drizzle a couple of teaspoons of Alfredo’s local honey on top and sprinkle on crumbled bacon. Now that works!
This week Walnut Hill’s Farm is here with fresh Brussels sprouts, along with onions, garlic, and fresh greens.
