Once You Try Brussels Sprouts This Way There Is No Going Back

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.

This is actually one of my fav foods. Ive been pan sautéing them in olive oil with salt, with rough chopped garlic and red chili powder after blanching. That caramelized garlic is an unbelievable accompaniment! It’s a super healthy snack especially for those doing low carb diets.

Never boiled your vegetables, steam’m instead. Little water in that pot and cover it for 5 minutes.

What a crazy guy. I just bought a big bag of brussel sprouts and I am going to try this method. And yes, I am guilty of cutting too much off the bottoms but always thought it was wasteful to do that. Thanks.

Your best winter soup. Butternut squash, etc. I find soups challenging and something unique (but achievable!) would be great.

Brussel sprouts really are an underrated vegetable, also bake them with some garlic (unpeeled)

Previously I hated brussel sprouts. I decided to try the recipe and it was delicious. This vegetable recipe will be going into my rotation for sure.

This is a brilliant recipe. Tossed the roasted sprouts in bacon and maple syrup and they were an instant hit with the family. Definitely will be the only way I'll be cooking sprouts from now.

I tried it with non-kosher salt and it WORKED!

I've never cooked Brussels Sprouts in my life because I was never wowed by them they way they were cooked by others. I tried them this way and they literally melted in my mouth. Incredible. I can't wait to convert others, thank you!

100% the best brussel sprout recipe I’ve ever used and I’ve been trying new recipes for over a decade!!! Finally found a keeper. Thank you!

I love your channel! I’ve been slicing brussel sprouts wrong all this time since I thought that’s what you’re “supposed” to do. Also never blanched them before baking, but I’m trying this ASAP. Thank you for your knowledge and great content :)

I am DEFINITELY looking forward to this!! Fresh green beans Rolls from scratch Gravy from roast juices Scalloped potatoes Easy dessert of some kind Finger food while the dinner cooks So many things I wish to learn from you!

Thought I would hate brussel sprouts when I was a kid-they’re stinky, lol- But omg, first time I had them, I wanted to cry. They were baked w/ salt & pep. & there was a cheddar sauce on the side.😋 Delish! Now I make them all the time & im happy when no one else wants to eat them, more for me😁

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.

People that swear they hate brussel sprouts have just not had them done properly. 👌

This is one of the best cooking channels on YouTube! Right to the point, yet entertaining.

Done these today for Christmas dinner. OMG as Sonny says there's no going back. Merry Christmas everyone
