- neurobro 12y agoApparently I've never cooked any of those properly! Anyway, I'm sure everyone has a few least-favorite veggies that would clear up that sentence (unless they really dislike pancake batter).
- ktrgardiner 12y agoAlmost any vegetable tastes amazing sautéed in butter with shallots and garlic. You can also add plain breadcrumbs once done. I say this having just made brussel sprouts that way for dinner. Very simple and very delicious. And I used to hate brussel sprouts.
- corprew 12y agoBrussel sprouts used to be more bitter than they are; farmers have actively been breeding better tasting brussels sprouts. Lots of people who used to hate them and didn't eat them for a number of years find them more pleasant when trying them now.
- gone35 12y agoNot necessarily. Individual expression of TAS2Rs is genetically determined and varies considerably[1]; and so the perceived bitterness of sinigrin-containing vegetables like cabbage (B. oleracea) differs from person to person [2,3].
