Tips To Roast Brussel Sprouts:
You can get crispy brussel sprouts every time with some of these tips. It always begins at the grocery store:
- The best way to get perfect roasted brussels sprouts is to begin (as with all fresh produce) by choosing sprouts at their peak season which is from late August through March.
- For the best flavor, look for bright green Brussels sprouts that are firm and heavy for their size. The outer leaves should be tightly packed. Check the surface area and avoid Brussels sprouts with yellowing loose leaves, a sign of age, or black spots, which could indicate fungus.
- Choose sprouts that are a similar size. Depending on the size of your sprouts, it’s a good idea to cut the larger ones in half so they roast at the same rate as smaller sprouts.
- Next, toss the halved brussels sprouts in a simple seasoning and some oil such as avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil. Then lay them out in a single layer on your sheet pan to ensure they roast evenly.
- You will need to roast them using high heat, like an oven temperature of 450 degrees F. To ensure the sprouts are crispy from all angles, take the pan out of the oven and toss the sprouts with a spatula halfway through roasting. Also, the cook time will depend on the size of your sprouts as well as the cooking methods you’re using. Be sure to check the recipe card for details!
