# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They're crispy on the outside and tender inside, with a glaze that somehow tastes like it took hours to perfect.
  • Nobody suspects this humble side dish will be the thing people ask you to bring again.
  • Ready in under 40 minutes, and you can double the batch without much extra effort.
02 -
  • Don't skip the second roast after glazing—those final minutes are when the magic happens and the glaze becomes caramelized and sticky instead of just wet.
  • Uniform Brussels sprout sizes matter more than you'd think; the smaller ones will char while the large ones still have cold centers if you're not careful.
03 -
  • Pat your Brussels sprouts completely dry before tossing with oil—excess moisture prevents browning and you'll end up steaming them instead of roasting.
  • If your glaze seems too thin after whisking, let it sit for a minute or two; it thickens slightly and coats the roasted sprouts better.
