Lemon makes many things better. But my favorite way to eat roasted brussel sprouts is with a bit of maple syrup, cider vinegar, and mustard. mmmmmm. I want to try the cream-braised brussel sprouts you posted but it may be a while before my hips can stand it.

Say, do you ever squeeze a little lemon juice on your roasted Brussels sprouts? I've been doing that lately, and it really perks them up and balances their flavor.

I made more than a pound, so maybe I didn't pump up the other stuff enough, but I was underwhelmed by the flavors. I still haven't found any method I like better than roasting.

I just grabbed your book to give my mother for her birthday. I decided to give it a look see to see if she'd like it, and 1 long subway ride later – decided to keep it for myself!
I love that you have this Brussel Sprout recipe in here! In 1997 or so I made homemade cookbook of collected recipe's – and this was in it.
My friend Kimmarie made them for a NYC orphans Thanksgiving – and being a new cook, she was mortified to see how much they cooked down! They won me over to brussel sprouts though, and I've been making them ever since. In fact, I think it may have been the first time I said “you have to give me that recipe!”

All these years later I'm on edition 4 of the cookbook I compiled back then – and I use it all the time. Can't wait to add your sin!

A lovely book. I lost my dad a few years ago – and it was wonderful to hear you talk about yours.

Congrats on the book
Samie

I, too, bite my lip with anticipation for autumn brussels sprouts. I like to roast them, halved and generously doused with walnut oil and a healthy grating of parmigiano-reggiano. My heart is racing just thinking about them!

They have been a hit at Thanksgiving. dw

My cat nearly scratched my face trying to get some of it!
