If you love caesar salad, then you are bound to love this Brussels sprouts salad recipe. It\u2019s not a classic raw Brussels sprouts salad by any means and it doesn\u2019t have a traditional caesar salad dressing. But one thing is for sure, it\u2019s definitely tasty!<\/p>\n

A flavor packed Brussels sprouts salad<\/h2>\n

First of all there are smoky paprika roasted sweet potatoes, and lightly roasted chickpeas which are added warm to the raw shredded spouts salad. And the dressing is what pulls all the flavors together \u2014 it\u2019s a caesar salad dressing of sorts, but instead it is made with tahini (sesammus). Some other things remain the same: like parmesan, mustard, garlic and lemon. And the anchovies. They are not to be skipped, as they are the hidden magic that are undetectable but add umami yumminess. Just make sure to use the small ones, as they are tender and can easily minced into almost a paste. You\u2019ll find them in the refrigerated section of the supermarket where other fish products are sold.<\/p>\n

\nTips for shredding Brussels sprouts<\/h2>\n

There are a few different ways to do this. You can either use a mandoline<\/a> (my method of choice \u2014 but careful! Its sharp so I recommend a protective gloves or a hand-guard<\/a>). Even a food processor <\/a>with a shredding attachment can do the job. Or finely shred them with a knife. All you need to do is cut off the very end bit of the root, peel away any loose leaves, half them lengthwise, then placing them cut side down, thinly julienne them. Voila.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s that easy.<\/p>\n
