Important to me is some form of salty
cheese (Cotija, feta, sharp
aged cheddar, or
aged jack are all good), something spicy (I like thinly sliced jalapeños), and some onions (minced white onion is traditional but I like sliced scallions too).
1 1/2 pound brussels sprouts, freshest you can find 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 - 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 1/3 cup fresh chives, minced 2 - 3 big pinches of salt 1 1/3 cups hazelnuts, smashed just a bit and toasted 2 ounces hard, salty,
aged cheese, shaved (pecorino, dry
aged jack, Parmesan, etc)
