    How Brussels sprouts become a favorite dish

    Brussels sprouts have an undeservedly bad reputation – but when prepared correctly, they are an absolute taste experience. The secret lies in roasting at high temperatures. This caramelizes the outer leaves and makes them crispy, while the inside remains buttery soft. Maple syrup and balsamic vinegar enhance the natural sweetness and balance out any bitterness. Preheating the baking tray is important – this way you achieve the desired roastiness immediately. This preparation method will turn even Brussels sprout skeptics into fans. As a side dish to Christmas dishes, but also all year round, they are a delicious way to enjoy this nutrient-rich vegetable. In just 30 minutes, the often-neglected cabbage is transformed into a delicacy.
