Since I stripped the brussels sprouts stalks yesterday, I could conduct my stalk “marrow” experiment - exciting, tried and learned something new!
Stalks two ways - first, “marrow-style” though not really - sautéed in brown butter to caramelize the open side, and topped with herbed breadcrumbs. This was very good, and the breadcrumbs were a lovely textural contrast.
I had saved a few pieces to try in a less fussy fashion - just steamed, topped with a bit of butter and a pinch of herbs. This was actually my preference - the flavor was more clear.
Also baked some tandoori-marinated chicken legs. I’m always disappointed by homemade tandoori chicken, because no matter how good it is, it’s never even close to the real thing. It was delicious, though.
