I Love Brussels Sprouts Society: UPDATES & NEW MEMBER DRIVE

[amldaley]

Can't post to the original Brussels Sprout thread as it is too old

So...let's start a Society update here!

Here are my updates:

1) LOOK AT THIS!

2) Did you see this months issue of Whole Living Magazine? Our beloved sprout made the cover!

So...

Any new member updates? New recipes? New finds? Any fabulous sprout pairings you have discovered?

Any new BBB'ers wish to apply for membership to the society? (It's easy...and Fairy and I have yet to turn anyone down...)

Ok, I have been dragging my feet, but where are the tips for making them wonderful? You need a Guide for New Members!

Lol, I would like to apply for membership. I roasted my first brussel sprouts two wks ago and LOVE them! I hated brussel sprouts when I was a kid, but my mom would boil them. So, it took a lot of reading here to convince me to give them another try.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!! Isn't it wonderful discovering our mothers didn't know how to cook everything?

All you need to do for membership is post a recipe, sprout use idea, or the like, here. You can even just describe to us what your roasting process was.

When Fairy comes around to the thread, she and I can Move to Approve and Second.

Hmm, I think I just roasted on convection setting for about 15 min at 350 degrees. I thought it would take longer, but they were ready! I just used olive oil, salt and pepper, they came out perfectly! My kids love them too!

I love these roasted and I posted on some
of the original threads, so I guess that makes
me a member. I have not tried any of the recipes where they are shredded. Anyone care to share?

Melanie?

We'll keep the drive open for a while, but just so we're ready when Fairy pops in...

I move to grant membership in the BBB I Love Brussels Sprouts Society to mctlaw and hellokitty.

Second?

I think I've been a de facto member in my head without actually applying for membership (blushing). I love, love, love brussel sprouts. We have roasted brussel sprouts at least once every 10 days this time of year, and we're having a delicious shaved brussel sprout sautee on Thanksgiving for the second year running. I don't know what the requirements of actual membership are, but I'd love to be considered.

And, specifically for YOU....I am going to have to request that shaved Brussels recipe....

I saw a thread a few days ago about Wegmans selling shaved Brussels Sprouts...no Wegmans here and I have never heard of shaving them!

Do you DIY or buy them shaved?

How does one shave a sprout? Do I need a mandoline? (Or a Norelco?)
