Whenever we have Brussels sprouts at home my children always
comment about how perplexed they are that they are the only kids in class who
like this vegetable. Last time my
daughter asked me why I thought that was the case, I answered her that it was
likely because they probably don’t know how to make them taste delicious.
This recipe comes from Jill. While it is so simple, it is at
the same time, simply amazing. I remember the first time I had this dish at
Jill's house. I practically ate the whole platter. I've since given the recipe
to my cousin in Brazil who told me once that she wasn't a fan of this
misunderstood vegetable either. But now even her family loves it! I think she
actually uses honey as a maple syrup substitute as this condiment isn't readily
available in Brazil. Hope this lovely side dish becomes a favorite in your
house as well. My kids won't feel like they're the only ones who like Brussels
sprouts!
