Organic Sprouts – Brussels (250g) Australia

Brussels sprouts, native to Belgium, have been enjoyed since the 16th century. These small, cabbage-like buds grow along a central stalk and are known for their distinctive, slightly bitter flavour. When cooked properly, they develop a nutty, earthy taste that complements a wide range of dishes.

Packed with vitamin K, Brussels sprouts support healthy bones and aid in blood clotting. They’re also a good source of fibre, which promotes healthy digestion and helps control cholesterol levels. Additionally, they contain powerful antioxidants like glucosinolates, which have been shown to support the body’s natural detoxification processes.

Barry’s tips: Roasting Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and a sprinkle of parmesan make for a crispy, flavourful side dish. For a lighter option, sauté them with garlic and lemon for a quick, fresh side. You can also add them to a stir-fry or incorporate them into a grain bowl for extra texture and nutrients.
