Notes

how to shave brussel sprouts

Knife: Remove any wilted outer leaves from the brussel sprouts. Working one at a time, hold the sprout at the base and slice cross-wise until you reach the stem.

Mandoline: Remove the any wilted outer leaves from the brussel sprouts. Use a fork to hold each sprout at the stem, then slide the sprout repeatedly down the mandoline to slice.

Food processor: Remove the stem and any wilted outer leaves from the brussel sprouts. Use the slicing attachment to shave larger amounts of sprouts.
