Boiled broccoli is terrible!
Steamed broccoli is great!

You don't need to add extra stuff on correctly steamed broccoli.

Brussels sprouts however, are just bad. No way to cook them that doesn't taste awful. They should be the childhood horror vegetable.

    Cut the sprouts in half, brush lightly with something flavorful (olive oil and salt works, but bacon grease is another option) and roast until crispy on the outside. They're amazing.

    Fun fact this is actually new! A Dutch scientist, Hans van Doorn, identified the specific chemicals that cause bitter taste and very quickly bred the bitterness out of modern cultivars
