Question:
Based on last season and the many predictions out this month, what do you think will be this winter’s trendiest item?
Answer:
I really think that this year we are going to see an increased use of Brussels sprouts. I believe people have become less intimidated by their bitter umami flavor. The cores can be braised while the leaves can be fried, creating a very texturally appealing vegetable for many types of cuisines.
