Meet the Cook: There were seven of us children when I was a girl, and I was the second oldest. I began cooking as soon as I could reach the stove and stir a pot. I'm a widow, so I usually make this for large gatherings. It's so quick and easy. The recipe was given to me when my husband and I were caring for foster children who enjoyed beef dishes. I've been fixing it ever since. -Shirley Max, Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Brussels Sprouts hiding inside ground beef balls! No, it's not going to fool human enemies of the beloved sprouts, but you can toy with them if they've been bad little denizens. This recipe uses frozen sprouts. I wish I had the know how to adapt it to fresh, but I'm hoping someone else will. *hint, hint* ;o) Nabbed offline somewhere...

Tips:

  • Choose small, firm Brussels sprouts: Smaller Brussels sprouts are more tender and flavorful. Look for sprouts that are tightly closed and free of blemishes.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Cut off the stem end of each Brussels sprout and remove any loose or damaged outer leaves.
  • blanch the Brussels sprouts: Blanching helps to remove the bitterness from Brussels sprouts and makes them more tender. To blanch Brussels sprouts, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately remove the Brussels sprouts from the boiling water and place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Cook the Brussels sprouts thoroughly: Brussels sprouts should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked Brussels sprouts will be mushy and bland.
  • Season the Brussels sprouts well: Brussels sprouts can be seasoned with a variety of herbs, spices, and sauces. Some popular options include olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese.
