This plant produces high yields of round ¾ to 2-inch size sprouts. It is a cool weather crop that thrives in temperatures of 60-65° F. Pick or cut the buds when they form 1-inch size firm heads.
Brussel Sprouts have the best flavor when they are picked fresh and then cooked by steaming, boiling or braising. I find they taste best when the recipe is kept simple: butter, olive oil, thinly sliced shallots, bacon, toasted pecans, a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a grind of fresh nutmeg – Delicious!
