Brussels sprouts: a divisive vegetable. At Wye Organic our policy is to cook them in fat at a relatively high temperature: roasted, or pan-fried, until golden brown and caramalising. Moving on from the great British tradition of boiling sprouts half to death has given us a new appreciation for the great British sprout! See for example this recipe courtesy of our friends at Langtons Farm, Crickhowell: https://langtons-farm.ooooby.org/recipes/brussels-sprouts-roasted-with-garlic-rosemary-and-olive-oil . Oh, and this week's sprouts are an unusual red variety.
(Please note that vegetables don't always behave predictably! Your box contents may vary slightly from what is listed below)
