Most divisive Christmas vegetable? Here's the 'tough' process Brussels sprouts go through
Peter van't Woudt is the site manager at the Primeale factory in the Netherlands - the world centre of sprout-growing.This is a crucial time of the year in the Brussels sprout world."This is the time of the year when we all have to work hard because everyone wants the sprouts. But here, we are a team."
It is the vegetable that you either love or hate and, yes, even within the sprout factory I met some people who love them, despite spending the whole day staring at sprouts, and others who couldn't bear the taste.Then there is Jack's Gravemade, whose job is to use infrared cameras to weed out the bad sprouts.This has been a tough year for them, he said, with the long hot summer affecting sprouts.That's tough for the farmers.
"I'm nervous because this is such an important time of the year, but we can't do anything if it's too cold. We need to harvest as much as we can but…", she shrugs and smiles a slightly anxious smile.'I think about sprouts every day'The summer was difficult, she explained, but it wasn't the only problem.
