1. I use to hate brussel sprouts because mom would cook them until they were olive green and mushy. Tried these last night and absolutely loved them! I had added the grated rind after the butter browned, but they immediately darkened and tasted bitter. I scraped them out of the butter, added the brussel sprouts, then sprinkled new grated rind over the sprouts when serving. Much better results!

2. Great way to prepare brussel sprouts. The lemon is aromatic and flavourful. Mine were a bit bitter but I don't think it had anything to do with the recipe. I will use this recipe again. This recipe was made for 2010 Spring PAC.   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal GaylaV Reply 1
3. Easy tasty recipe - steam the sprouts ahead of time have the butter & lemon ready and 10 minutes before serving finish the sprouts - lovely flavor combination with the lemon, butter & sprouts   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Bergy Reply 1
