Broccoli and Brussel Sprout Leaves

RE: Broccoli and Brussel Sprout Leaves By Russel (Guest Post) When it is getting cold and plants won't survive much longer, one can shred brussel sprout leaves and blanch in boiling water for a few minutes in order to freeze for later use. (Don't fully cook.) Then the leaves can be used in soup or stir-fried with other vegetables later, after the season is over.

Great cooked like spinach or greens.

Many leaves from vegetables are just as edible as the vegetable itself. Celery leaves are great in soups and broths.

We grew six brussel sprout plants and when I harvest them I decided to try to use the leaves in a soup so I chopped about 5 leaves in two packages of Ramen noodles. I also added some leftover cooked chicken. It came out wonderful and so easy.

You cook them the same as you would mustard greens. They are delicious.

We prefer steamed until tender, with Oriental Ginger Salad Dressing with toasted sesame seeds poured over it all, or sprinkle Stubbs Ginger/Rosemary Seasoning like salt. Yummmm. During these cooler months, however, many sick folks are inconsiderate or thoughtless, and both shop when coughing/ill and handle fresh produce, so we stop buying fresh things in Nov. through May , unless packaged well, during the Flu season, avoiding it most of the time. We buy fresh frozen instead. Good luck and God bless.

I used to buy fresh broccoli for stir fry, and I'd cut the florets bite-sized, then peel and slice the stems like water chestnuts, and throw all the leaves in, too. MMM! Even picky kids and adults would gobble it down. I haven't done this in a while because I found out I have multiple allergies and have not found a good stir fry sauce or recipe for sauce, so far.
