least favorite: Brussels sprouts, can still remember not liking them when I was younger

Most people who don't like Brussels sprouts don't like it because their parents overcooked them, which releases the sulfur compounds and makes them smell and taste terrible.

If they're cooked correctly, they're really amazing.

Cut up some bacon, then render the fat out of it. Remove the meat and set aside, keeping the fat in the pan. Add some chopped onions and Brussels sprouts, cut in half. Saute the sprouts just until they are al dente (soft, with just a slight resistance when you bite into one). Stir the bacon back into the sprouts, and serve over rice. Or if you're making pasta, mix 1/4 cup of the pasta water into the sprouts to make a sauce.
