Description
Brussels Sprouts are increasingly becoming a staple in vegan diets due to the vegetable’s distinct flavor and versatility as a side dish. A single Brussels sprout is a group of wild cabbage cultivated for its small, leafy green buds, which are typically 1-1.6 inches in diameter and visually resemble miniature cabbages. Choose brussel sprouts that are fresh in appearance with a healthy, green color: their texture should be firm, leaves should be compact, and butt ends should be clean.
How to Store
Storage
– Brussels sprouts should be stored between 0° – 2° C (32° – 36° F)

– Keep handling to a minimum to avoid bruising and decay
– Avoid placing the case or raw product on non-sanitized kitchen counter tops to help prevent the potential for cross contamination.
– Always limit the time the product is out of refrigeration. Exposure to kitchen temperatures for prolonged periods of time will cause the Broccolini to lose its crispness and color.
Preparation
– Prep fresh daily as needed. Try not to use the prepared product from the previous day.
– Brussels sprouts need to be washed in a sanitary sink with a fresh cold water rinse.
