Is there science behind why I cut a cross in the bottom of a Brussels Sprout? #lazyweb

It's to help it cook better, but not necessary if they're small. You're supposed to stir-fry them now apparently;-)

re brussels - think it's just that it helps them cook more quickly as the core is more dense #lazyweb

don't cut your brussels. It allegedly means they cook evenly but there's more chance of cooking all the goodness out and having mush
