I had not had brussel sprouts since I was a kid. As a kid I would eat them, but they were never my favorite. They were always boiled and served with butter or salt.
I have been wanting to try them again recently so I bought some the other day. Last night I cooked them up. I decided to roast them instead of boiling them. Man what a difference! I preheated the oven to 400. I then cut off the end of the brussel sprouts and cut most of them in half. The very small ones stayed whole. They were tossed in olive oil and then got a heavy dose of ground black pepper and salt. They went into the oven. i gave the pan a good shake after about 15 minutes. the roasted for about 30 minutes or so. After they came out of the oven I gave them another dose of salt.
My wife, who had never had brussel sprouts before, but had heard nothing good about them, loved them. I could not get enough of them. My daughter wanted nothing to do with them
I can't wait to make these again. The only problem is that they made the house stink.
