8 cups brussels sprouts
¼ cup butter
2 Tbsp Scotch Whisky
Pinch each of granulated sugar, salt
and pepper
Trim ends off of brussels sprouts, cut small X in the base and cook in boiling water until tender, about 7 minutes. Hint: May be refrigerated for a day at this point if you chill immediately in cold water , drain well and roll in a towel to dry. Increase cooking time in glaze to about 5 minutes.
In the same pan, melt butter slowly, stir in whiskey and sugar. Cook, stirring for about 30 seconds. Return sprouts to the pan and cook until coated, about 1 minute. Stir in salt & pepper to taste.
Hint: If you have very fussy eaters, break the sprouts into leaves before cooking. This makes for a milder product.
