Genus Overview: Brussel Sprouts

Common Name: Brussel Sprouts

Miniature, cabbage-like buds growing on tall stalks, a mild, slightly bitter, nutty flavor that sweetens when roasted or after frost. They're identified by their tightly packed, bright green leaves, best when firm and fresh, and are a cool-season crop improving with light frost.
