Preparation

  1. Steam the brussels sprouts until tender but not soft, about 6 minutes. Set aside.
  2. When the sprouts are just cool enough to handle, slice in half and pulse in a food processor until finely chopped.
  3. Heat the cream until almost boiling and add to the sprouts with the butter. Process until smooth. Add 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper and a pinch of nutmeg, blend well and adjust seasonings to taste. Serve warm.
  • For a milder brussels sprouts flavor, add 1 1/2 cup diced, boiled potatoes when processing.
