Are "raw pistachios" not roasted/salted? Or can I use a bag of shelled pistachios that are already salted and roasted? Maybe use a little less salt if so?
I think there’s a minor, but important, few words missing. Recipe says 12-15 minutes shake halfway. It should say, roast 12-15 minutes, rotate pan and/or flip sprouts and cooks for another 12-15. Fortunately, the other two dishes I was making, carrot gnocchi and pan seared salmon, take only five minutes I ended up turning the broiler on for 60 seconds at the end to crisp things up. It’s a great recipe. But really requires 30 minutes. If one likes more heat, add another dash of chili.
Used 3 lbs brussels and 6 tbs EVOO and 6 tbs sherry. Decrease sherry next time- 3 tbs? Roast at 425 for at least 20 min.
Truffle rose oil mixed in with other blend
Can I use Sherry vinegar instead of wine?
Not great. Somehow that addition of wine seemed to cause a unwanted steaming, interfering with the dry roasting required for the intensive taste developing. And yes, it was a thirty minute roast. But the pistachios as well as the brussels sprouts, ended up soggier than I would have expected.
