Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Garlic grater or microplane

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil or neutral oil
  • 2 tablespoon white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • 1 clove garlic finely grated (added at the end)
  • Flaky sea salt to finish
  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the sprouts

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil and a light sprinkle of salt.

Roast

  • Spread sprouts cut-side down in a single layer. Roast for 20–25 minutes until deeply golden and crisp on the edges.

Make glaze

  • In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, maple syrup, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes.

Toss & coat

  • Once roasted, transfer sprouts to a large bowl. Pour glaze over and toss until coated.

Add garlic punch

  • While still hot, grate fresh garlic directly over the glazed sprouts and toss again. The heat will lightly mellow the raw bite without losing its sharpness.

Finish & serve

  • Sprinkle with flaky salt and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

Notes

Chef Tips: Roast Brussels sprouts cut-side down for maximum crispness.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 3 days; reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
Variations: Add chili paste for extra heat, or drizzle sesame oil before serving.
Serving Suggestions: Pairs well with salmon, roasted chicken, or grain bowls.
