[Sca-cooks] period Brussel Sprout recipes

[Terry Decker]

Fresh brussels sprouts, steamed until fork tender, and served in melted 
butter with shave proscuitto (or deli sliced ham, if skimping).

Lima beans should be fresh and young, unfortunately their usually 
unavailable and I needs make do with frozen baby limas, which are always a 
little tough.  If you don't like limas to begin with, most of those you can 
get aren't worth the effort.
