    I see a common theme of people who don't have convection ovens. If you don't have a fan in your oven that blows air around it's not a convection oven and you may have to turn up the heat by 20-25 degrees to achieve the same result. Alternatively just half and blanch the sprouts and then sear them in a pan.

    Have you tried the Cook's Illustrated recipe for roasted Brussels sprouts? Instead of blanching them, you toss them with a little bit of water in addition to the oil, and then lay them out on the sheet pan as you did, cut side down, but cover the pan with foil before putting it into a 500-degree F oven. The sprouts steam in that small amount of water for 10 minutes, and then you take off the foil and let them roast and caramelize for another 10-12 minutes. One pan and you can basically set it and forget it (for 10 minutes anyway.) It is THE BEST, most foolproof method I've found for roasting sprouts.

    I add a drizzle of balsamic REDUCTION after the sprouts come out of the oven - you don't need much - and then I kind of mix / lightly toss everything in the pan, to ensure all the sprouts get a little bit of the reduction sauce. Takes something that was already delicious, and takes it to the next level!

They come salty, some pepper heat, and not chewy, but a firm bite. And yes I eat half the pan......and they nuke up well. PS Mabruka Moroccan olive oil!!!!! It has a black pepper heat to it and 20 times the stuff that makes olive oil good for your heart compared to Italian.

    This same technique also works fantastic with broccoli. I actually love a half and half. Half blanched with no salt, and half blanched with salt water then roasted with olive oil and some finishing salt. They freshness of the barely cooked broccoli with nothing added really complements the roasted, charred, broccoli that is properly seasoned.

      @DoctorSess 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I feel like most people who don’t like Brussels sprouts have never had them prepared decently… if you cook them right they are so delicious.
      My go to method is to slow cook thick cut bacon in a cast iron in order to render as much fat as possible, remove bacon and cut into bits for topping later. Then brown the Brussels sprouts in the bacon fat - the key here is to leave them alone until the downside is golden brown then just flip them all once so the other side can brown as well. After they are browned and semi-tender lower the heat all the way and mix in a little balsamic vinegar, maple syrup or honey, and then top with the bacon bits and a soft creamy cheese (preferably goat cheese). They come out so good that they steal the spotlight from the main dish (I usually serve them with my slow cooked bbq pork).

      @@sparklebox11On the stovetop over low heat so the bottoms don’t overcook before the rest gets hot and tender. Brussels are like a little cabbage and need some time to get tender. A lid can help them get some good penetrating heat too & also help prevent them from drying out. I’d say experiment with lower heat & longer temps because tender is definitely more desirable with Brussels imo. They’re pretty easy to make once you get the hang of them.

    These are super tasty but I just want to say.. If you prepare them exactly the same way but skip the blanching part and just toss them in olive oil and sprinkle with salt and red pepper flakes and put them in the oven for 15-20 mins they come out just the same, super yummy, crispy edges and delicious. So I'm not sure if the blanching process is even necessary, maybe it makes them a little softer on the inside or maybe a little saltier on the inside, but if you cook them directly in the oven they get soft enough and if you use enough salt after you toss them in the olive oil they are salty enough..
    I looooove your recipes and videos ♥. I want to make brussels sprouts like this and use the chilli crisp oil I made of yours today and see how it tastes with it, perhaps even make a salad or a pasta with the brussels sprouts and the chilli crisp oil..

    The way that I do BRUSSELS SPROUTS is I cut a very small piece off of the bottom just like you did but I do not slice
    them in half . I put the whole BRUSSELS SPROUTS into my "CROCK POT EXPRESS " pressure cooker , add a small
    amount of water , and one to two tablespoons of APPLE CIDER VINEGAR (do not use white distilled vinegar ! ) .
    The APPLE CIDER VINEGAR will essentially "klii that bite" that is prevalent in BRUSSELS SPROUTS .It only takes three
    minutes of pressure cooking time and they are done ! There is no noticeable taste of vinegar from the BRUSSELS
    SPROUTS after they have been cooked in the vinegar water ! I have had people tell me that they do not like BRUSSELS SPROUTS because they have a nasty "bite" when they are eaten . I told them to try my method of adding vinegar to
    the boiling water and you will notice that there is "NO BITE" ! This method also works for turnips !
    For those who like radishes , put the radishes in a container and add a small amount of apple cider vinegar . This
    method also kills the "bite" from radishes . I accidentally discovered this when I was at a restaurant and I ordered
    VINEGAR AND OIL on my salad that had radishes in it . I noticed that the radishes did not have a nasty "bite" when I
    ate them . I have since gone from a radish hater to a radish lover !

    Brussels Sprouts have easily become my favorite vegetable in the last year or so. Anytime I go to a restaurant I'm very judgmental of how they cook them because some places get it right, others don't. By the looks of these, I would probably easily devour that entire sheet tray! I haven't tried the blanching beforehand, so I'm going to have to try that now - thanks for the tip! As for a finish, I usually add some honey and balsamic and toss, and then sprinkle a little grated parmesan on top. Always a crowd pleaser!

      @@DanielleBlanchardArts I think it depends on how intense you want the flavor. Some prefer a more mild hint of those flavors, while someone like me is more heavy handed with it. For a tray that size, I usually put them all in a bowl, and I would start with 1 tablespoon of each and then toss to coat. I'd sample one and see if you think it needs more or less depending on how much flavor you want. I usually just eyeball it and do roughly equal parts balsamic/honey, and it would probably equate to about 2 tablespoons of each. May take some trial and error to determine exactly what works best for you, but it's too good not to try!

    Add a tablespoon of butter and tablespoon of olive oil in to a hot frying pan, add chopped smoky bacon with finely chopped ogarlic, move it around to prevent burning, then add very thinly sliced UNCOOKED sprouts and continue to cook. Add a little more butter and olive oil - enough to cook the sprouts - finally throw in packaged pre cooked chestnuts. Throw a few tested flaked almonds over the top to dress and job done! This is the only way to eat sprouts in my opinion and it doesn't need to be Christmas for me to make this.i hate boiled sprouts, if anything I steam them until al dente, but I like the idea of roasting them.
