I love them almost any way other than overcooked.

For people who are not so fond, I roast, then finish them with a little cream, and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg (helps the occasional bitter one mellow out.)

One thing I love about the PNW is you can buy (or grow) them on the stalk. Lots of fun! And kids seem to be more likely to like cool-looking things.
