If I intuit the components of the German word "abschrecken" correctly, it 
means to remove the horridness--to "de-awfulize". Dictionary def is probably 
something entirely different, but regarding Brussels sprouts, the intuited 
meaning sure feels right!

Going to stop by the grocery now. Can't wait to try Leo's recipe (first, 
then the others!).
