Storing Prepared Brussel Sprouts

If you want to save some time by preparing these the day before, store the cut Brussels sprouts in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I wouldn’t cut them more than two days in advance. Don’t miss my list of delicious Brussels sprouts recipes at the bottom of the post!

Choose sprouts that are bright green in color, avoiding yellowing or browning on the leaves. Try to pick sprouts that are similar in size for even cooking. Look for tightly packed leaves and avoid sprouts with too many loose, wilted, or damaged leaves. Avoid any sprouts that are mushy or soft.

Shredding Brussel Sprouts

Once you have prepped your Brussel sprouts, you can shred them. Shredding them is a great way to use them in salads. Or use the shreds to make a Brussels sprout slaw. A great way to do that is with a food processor. You can also use a mandoline.
