29 Brussels Sprouts Recipes | olivemagazine


Why we love brussels sprouts

Cultivated in Belgium in the 16th century (hence the name), brussels sprouts are a relative of cabbage and they share a similar flavour profile of tasting slightly mustardy, sweet and (some people think) bitter. Often overcooked if boiled, which brings out more of their bitterness, stir-frying or roasting is the best method of cooking sprouts. They can also be eaten raw, finely shredded and added to slaws or salads.

Health benefits of brussels sprouts

Sprouts have some impressive health credentials. They’re high in a number of antioxidants, which are known for reducing inflammation in the body and supporting a healthy heart. They also contain compounds that may help protect against cancer, and they’re rich in sulphur so they may contribute to good gut health.
