    I used to hate asparagus, but turns out it’s because my mom and grandma would always boil it.

    Pro-tip: don’t do that, it’s awful.

      Same with Brussel sprout. My step-dad would boil them. Tastes like a soggy sulfur fart. But cut them in half, toss them in a bit of oil, salt and pepper, roast them until crispy in the oven with, and they’re delicious. Oddly sweet, even. Try with other seasonings to enhance further.
