I'll brobably have to suffer through them...

Here's two recipes that have been extreeeemly popular at my parties. Spanish cauliflower salad: http://www.clovegard...s/dgv_cauli1.html Russian cauliflower with mayo: http://www.clovegard...v_caulimayo1.html Though cauliflower was developed in southern Europe during the Renaissance, today the world capital of cauliflower cooking is India - where it is a luxury vegetable because few regions are cool enough to grow it.

Make them anyway: Raw, Blanched, marinated, pickled, salted, lightly sauteed, bake in a dish... the taste is unsettling and down right ICKY. Of course, my wife loves the stuff. Oh and horseradish on anything knocks down any taste you might object to... so its not like eating the raw stuff.

And my favorite recipe does include bacon. http://www.clovegard...n_pastbspro1.html Note again that 3-1/2 minutes means 3-1/2 minutes - not 4 minutes and definitely not 5 minutes. Even in England, where vegetables have been cooked to death even worse than in Germany, Brussels sprouts are starting to drop off the top of the "most hated vegetable" list - as the English (very) slowly learn how to cook.
