Let's all get Brassica'd up (split from WAYNE thread)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The merits of broccoli as an accompaniment to an evening meal.
It's a pressing issue, I'm sure you'll agree.

Strange you should ask as I have just purchased a florette this morning. It is a beautiful vegetable and quite delicious only if organic - the difference is taste is remarkable and these days not too badly priced.

Do you like broccoli or are you more inclined towards the cauliflower?

I beg to disagree - If that is allowed here - I am munching a piece now with a nice plate of couscous and a spicy saudi dip. mmmmmmmm

I warn you - think twice before disagreeing with a german. ;D

but in this case I can admit that my cooking abilities aren't developed enough to bring out the whole finery of a broccoli.

I must say I prefer the former.
Provided it is not overcooked, it is one of my favourite legumes.

Cauliflower on its own is rather bland and has a texture which is disagreeable to my taste.

Waffles? No-one likes them.

Belgian chocolate indeed, but what about our beer culture (and cooking with it, your country's beer is too weak even to make a decent cup of tea with :twisted:), Brussels sprouts ;D , sea food (mussels with Belgian Fries) (mossele meh frut!), Gentse Waterzooi, Poelfrikass (kinda meat stew with chicken spheres balls thingies), Black Pudding with wild cherries, chicory in the oven with cheese sauce and ham, rijstpap with brown sugar, crepe suzettes...... et effing cetera.

Sorry about the Flemish/French stuff in here, but you English don't have decent words for these culinary orgasms...

It's quite good, some sort of soupish thing with chicken or fish and many vegetables... Means something like water mess from Ghent :lol:

And Haggis still is on my 'to eat' list :D

In short, 'Gentse Waterzooi' is the state right before 'Haggis', the state where it goes down the stomach.

Only decent thing the Scots have is their Salmon ;)
