The Brussels sprouts provide a slightly bitter and earthy base. The lemon adds bright acidity that cuts through the richness.

Roasting Perfection
Ensure the Brussels sprouts are properly dried before roasting to promote browning and crispiness. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting at high heat.
Gastrique Consistency
Pay close attention to the gastrique. The sugar should caramelize to a deep amber color without burning. Deglaze carefully with vinegar, and adjust the chili to your desired spice level.
Balancing Flavors
Taste and adjust the gastrique for the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy. It should complement, not overpower, the Brussels sprouts.
