Brussels sprout

Brussels sprouts are a typical Belgian specialty known well beyond our borders. They are small, green, cabbage-like vegetables that grow on thick stems. Despite their small size, Brussels sprouts are packed with nutrients. They have a mild, slightly bitter taste and can be prepared in various ways, from roasted to braised.

Smart
tips

Cooking time

Don’t cook Brussels sprouts for too long, or they’ll become bitter. They usually need about 5-7 minutes to become tender.

Roast cut-side down

Halve the Brussels sprouts and place them flat-side down on the baking tray. This gives them a nicely roasted edge on that side.

Growing Method

Our Brussels sprouts are grown in open fields, meaning the plants grow outdoors without the protection of greenhouses or tunnels. This allows for natural growth and development of the Brussels sprouts, resulting in a pure and authentic flavour. Field cultivation ensures that the sprouts can fully benefit from the natural environment and climate, contributing to the quality of the product.
