Erm, how can I put this delicately?Ever since they came into season, I've been eating loads of sprouts. I love them. However, I've also been experiencing very windy conditions, and I'm not meaning the weather.I'm going to call this phenomenon Hurricane Iain.#TeamRosenkohl

@fitheach so not your mastodon that's the source of excessive tooting 😬 careful on Thursday with the already forecast high winds 🤣

@v60fan "Excessive tooting" 😃 Forecast for here is to be a bit windier, but, not that bad (I hope). More weather stuff shortly.

@fitheach How are you cooking them? I love them too and my OH is addicted, but boiled/steamed whole creates the most ... well, effect. I usually shred them then lightly cook in butter and a very little water and they don't seem to have the after-effects then.

@Freyalyn It's OK, #Gruoch doesn't complain.I've got about a dozen ways to prepare them. Most frequently lightly steamed, and finished in butter and garlic.

@fitheach I think the garlic also compounds the toot factor, but let's just call that medicine. 😃i'm having sprouts halved and roasted tonight with whole garlic cloves (too many 'per usual') and some olive oil, to pair with roasted potatoes and broiled salmon. think i'll end that with a stout, or have some cabernet.@Freyalyn

@fitheach We have lots of cheese in, some good strong stuff. Cauli's currently being lightly steamed in the Remoska, then I'll make a sauce and heat up the pierogies when we're ready to eat.

@fitheach Well that is a blow. Brussels sprouts are traditionally an essential component of Christmas dinner, making it a national act of penance.I suggest whittling sprouts out of cabbages. If you want more than one sprout per cabbage, the layers can be held together with decorative cocktail sticks.

@fitheach The wee boy will eat an entire meal of them! For that reason he sometimes prefers them cooked normally, because 5 year-old humour. The fermentation breaks down the raffinose into a digestible form

@fitheach I started baking them drizzled in olive oil this year, very nice with toasted almonds. But that made them too tasty, it felt wrong somehow.Things are looking bad here in Western New York state - there's far less choice than usual in the shops. One big store even removed two double-sided lines of food department shelving and just kind of nudged the rest in an attempt to focus on "the nice wide aisles".
