Culinary Uses
Brussels sprouts offer a variety of culinary possibilities. They can be roasted with oil, salt, and pepper for a caramelized flavor, sautéed with garlic and onions for a savory side, steamed until tender-crisp and served with butter and lemon, or grilled until charred for a smoky taste. Stir-frying with other veggies adds depth to their flavor, while shaving them thinly and using them raw in salads provides a crunchy texture. Brussels sprouts can also be braised in broth or wine until tender or pickled in vinegar and spices for a tangy treat.

Growing Instructions
Starting your seeds
You can start Brussels sprouts seeds indoors using a heat mat to promote germination. Once the seedlings sprout and grow a few sets of leaves, move them outdoors. Keep the soil moist and provide 4-6 hours of sunlight daily. When direct sowing Brussels sprouts seeds, plant them about 1/4 inch deep with a light cover of soil in well-drained soil. Space them 16–18 inches apart to give them room to grow and develop healthy sprouts.
Harvesting your seeds
When harvesting Brussels sprouts, start picking the bottom sprouts first as they mature earlier. Twist or cut off the sprouts from the stem. Harvest regularly before they become too large or overripe. Store harvested Brussels sprouts in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator for freshness.
