How to Shred Brussel Sprouts
Shredding Brussels sprouts shortens the cooking time and makes them useable in chilled, uncooked recipes like cole slaw. Unlike their larger cruciferous cousin the cabbage, Brussels sprouts do not lend themselves to easy shredding. The tiny size of brussels sprouts prevents the cook from safely grating them on a box grater. For dishes requiring shredded sprouts, opt for a food processor for a more powerful option than any manual kitchen device.
