Give me a BRICK of Brussel sprouts any day. I'll melt it down soon enough. Cooked. Not like a popsicle. Even on a hot summer day. For some reason fresh Brussel Sprouts tastes like poison to me no matter what you do with it. Why would that be? I'm normally down on freezing. But that's going to change. Some things seem better when you freeze them first. Not however does "Wonder" White bread. Which we had when I was a kid. Tasted like air. In solid form. Oh they figured out for sure this year that butter kills you much less quick than margarine. So butter put on with impunity on those buttered Brussel sprouts and there you have it. The best spices are not spices. "Butter" is just about the best spice there is. Used with a smidgen of discretion of course. I'd eat just about anything if it was cooked in butter and garlic. Anything?!?!?! Almost anything. Not fresh sprouts from Brussels. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/
