A recent survey (n=1) has come to the following conclusions regarding goodness of members of the Brassica family:

  • broccoli: 5/5. Godly. Fry in pan on very high heat, severly searing the outside, but keeping the inside crisp.
  • savoy: 4.5/5. Very versatile. Easy to grow yourself. Smells amazing.
  • kale: 4.5/5. Must have in winter.
  • green cabbage: 4.5/5. Cheers from Sauerkraut country!
  • turnip: 3/5. Alright. Sometimes nice to have. Great raw with dip.
  • cauliflower: 2/5. Tastes like nothing. Only this high up because my ~~control group~~ girlfriend loves it.
  • Brussel sprouts: 0.5/5. Technically edible.
  • Broccoli, cooked: warcrime.

This list reads like someone who’s never been served roasted brussel sprouts or steamed broccoli.

Had both. So many people here have recommended different Brussels sprout recioes that I want comment on this. But steamed or boiled broccoli just sucks compared to seared or roasted.
