About Brussels sprouts, frozen, cooked, boiled, drained, with salt

Brussels sprouts are small, leafy green vegetables that look like miniature cabbages, growing in tight rows along a thick stalk. Named for the Belgian capital where they were widely cultivated centuries ago, they belong to the cruciferous family alongside broccoli, cabbage, and kale, and they carry a mild, slightly nutty, faintly bitter flavor that turns sweet and caramelized when properly cooked.

A cool-season crop, they actually taste sweeter after a light frost. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and rich in vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, fiber, and antioxidants. Once dreaded for the sulfurous smell of overboiling, they have become a favorite thanks to roasting, which crisps the edges and coaxes out their natural sweetness; they are also delicious sauteed, shredded raw into slaws and salads, or tossed with bacon and a splash of balsamic.

Halving them and roasting cut-side down at high heat gives the best browning. Trim the stem ends and pull off any yellowed outer leaves before cooking, choose firm, bright-green heads that feel dense, and store the sprouts unwashed in the refrigerator, or still on the stalk, to keep them fresh.
