Look for smaller sprouts – they’re more sweet and tender than their larger counterparts and will have less of that sulphurous ‘sprouty’ aroma that puts some people off.
Blanch, drain and refresh the sprouts under cold water the day before. Pat them dry with kitchen paper, then store in the fridge, covered in damp kitchen paper, until needed.
