Roasted Brussels Sprouts

ALRATIBA — Tue, 26 Mar 2019 23:34:33 GMT

I'm doing a lot of vegetaran stuff these days ... just took out a pan of roasted Brussels Sprouts.

Prepare as necessary if you use fresh - remove outer leaves, riinse, slice big ones in half. I just buy the frozen ones.

1. Toss with salt, pepper and olive oil.

2. Roast at 400 degrees for 40 min ... turning occasionally.

3. When done, drizzle with maple syrup! Delicious!

Same binge here!

I like to make a balsamic vinegar / honey reduction. It takes five minutes to boil down a bit.

Fantastic on almost everything ... absolutely heavenly on roasted sweet potatoes!

400 degrees for 40 mins - that's got to be good. Never had them jazzed up - s/p & butter normal stuff. Going to write that one down and when I see fresh moist brussels in the store or market (not dried looking) gonna bring some home.

I love veggies - just chickpeas in a can = don't excite.

Keep bring good ideas!

Make a roasted veggie medley!

You can cut up all sorts of stuff ... beets, carrots, onions, white and sweet potatoes .... whatever you like.

Roast them all with oil / salt / pepper ..... and drizzle you favorite stuff over. I've even heated up some salad dressing ... Italian / Honey Mustard / Sweet Onion Ranch / eetc.

I love the fresh ones roasted but when I have extra fresh ones, I take the leaves off and use them as salad greens or add them to any other salad greens. It adds a different taste and crunch to a garden salad.

Would that be equal parts balsamic vinegar and honey @ALRATIBA ? Do you use any other ingredients? This sounds really good. I'll bet I'd love it on salmon.

@Citrine1

About 1/2 cup vinegar to a couple of tablespoons of honey.

Depends on how sweet you want it. Give it a taste test.

Re: Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Thanks @ALRATIBA . Your ratio makes more sense now that I think about it.

Re: Roasted Brussels Sprouts

@Citrine1

Remember you are going to reduce it (boil down) so a lot of the liquid of the vinegar will burn off. Don't cook it down to a syrup ... just slightly less watery.

After a few times - you'll find the right proportions for your taste.

The first time served the reduction, my guest ended up dipping everything in it. It's been a big hit!

I like to shake some Montreal Steak Seasoning on them when roasting.

I do these too and love them with a little drizzled butter. Roasting doesn't release the "sour" flavor they had when cooking in nwater.

If you've never tried them, they're surprisingly mild!

You may know this, but if you do you cook them in water, a pinch of sugar takes away that bitterness.

@ALRATIBA Again, appreciate your input! I would have boiled it down to a syrup -- now I know! I can't wait to try this. Like your guest, I'll probably dip everything in it. I once had a balsamic reduction on a flatbread with cheese and garlic, and it was so delicious. I knew right then that I'd like it with so many other foods.

@ALRATIBA The Sweet Onion Ranch dressing sounds so good. What brand is it or is it a dressing you have made yourself? Thank You!
