SWEET & HOT BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Hop on the Brussels bandwagon; you won't be sorry.


I love this recipe for Brussels sprouts because it's not your typical bacon and maple syrup number. Not that I don't like versions including those two ingredients, I do. But I'd like to say that given the homely spout's unusual flavor (bitter, mineral-heavy), pairing it with contrasting flavors is nice. As with this, I'm using the sweet calm of mint and the smoky heat of chili flakes to bring out the earthiness. Different can be very good.



Notes: Olive oil is extra-virgin.
