FAQ’s
Do I need to boil Brussel sprouts before roasting?

Why do you soak Brussel sprouts before roasting?
This is the parboiling discussed. It will soften the leaves of the brussel sprouts right down to their core and tenderize them. They will not go all mushy. This will speed up the roasting time and caramelize the sprouts to crispy and tasty veggie, anybody will eat.
Should you cut brussel sprouts in half before roasting?
It is fine to cut the brussel sprouts in half. Placing them with their cut side down on the baking sheet. Leaving them to caramelize better and then the leaves would crisp up and absorb the spices well. Cutting the sprouts in half helps will help that bitterness that’s in the center of the brussel sprouts taste better. It releases that bitter component.

Parboiling veggies is only to partially cook them. This will take a short time to parboil brussel sprouts, such as 3 – 4 minutes. You will be able to tell when they are ready to drain as they will turn a bright green.
