Brussels Sprouts Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees and place a pan of hot water in the bottom, to help prevent the sprouts from becoming tough. Turn on convection if you have it.
• Toss sprouts with peanut oil, sprinkle with salt, and spread out on one or two baking sheets. Roast 15 minutes. Stir and continue cooking 10 to 20 minutes more, until browned and crisp. Check sprouts every 5 minutes or so; if they are browning too fast, reduce heat by 25 degrees and turn off convection.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a bowl, whisk together vinegar and honey. Whisk in peanut butter until thick and creamy. Add water until consistency is like creamy salad dressing. Season to taste with hot sauce, if using.
• When sprouts are tender and browned, remove from oven, transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle with salt. Add half the dressing and toss well.
• Take orange and cut a thick slice off the bottom and the top to make flat surfaces. Rest bottom on a cutting board and use a small, sharp knife to carve off all the peel and pith, cutting from top to bottom and following the curve of the fruit. When all the orange flesh is exposed, cut out each segment by slicing along the white membranes. Gently loosen from the orange and set aside.
• Add half the orange and half the cherries to bowl and toss. Taste. Adjust with more dressing, orange and cherries until flavors are balanced. Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with fried shallots or fresh mint, or both, if using.

Steps:

• Toss 1 1/2 pounds trimmed and halved brussels sprouts with 1 1/2 tablespoons each olive oil and malt vinegar, 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper. Roast cut-side down on a preheated baking sheet at 450˚ until browned and tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons more malt vinegar and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with ice water; set aside. Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan with a lid; fill with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil; add sprouts, cover, and cook until easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 10 to 15 minutes (depending on size).
• In a small bowl or liquid-measuring cup, combine mustard, vinegar, and oil. Season with salt and pepper, and whisk until combined.
• Lift basket and transfer sprouts to ice water. Let stand until cooled, about 5 minutes. Drain well and pat dry; cut lengthwise through core into quarters. Serve sprouts drizzled with vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Wash and cut an X into the bottom of all the Brussels sprouts.
• Fill a large saucepan 1/4 full of water. Bring to boiling. Steam sprouts in a steamer basket until tender, but still firm, about 5-8 minutes.
• For the vinaigrette:.
• In a small bowl whisk vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, walnut oil, nutmeg and salt and pepper together. Taste and adjust as necessary. Set aside.
• Drain the warm Brussels sprouts and place in a serving bowl. Toss with the vinaigrette.
• Serve garnished with the toasted chopped walnuts. You don't have to toast the walnuts if you don't want to :).

Steps:

• In a blender, combine all the vinaigrette ingredients. Blend until smooth; set aside.
• In a large sauté pan over medium-low heat, heat the vegetable oil and butter until it foams. Add sprouts and sauté until browned in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Add about half the vinaigrette, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, and continue to cook until the sprouts are crisp-tender, 2 minutes longer. Add more vinaigrette; it may not all be needed.
• Spread the yogurt thinly over a serving plate, and mound the brussels sprouts on top. Dot with crumbled honeycomb, and garnish with shiso and fried shallots (if using).

Steps:

• Trim Brussels sprouts. Using the slicing blade on a food processor or a knife, thinly slice sprouts. Transfer to a large bowl. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings, reserving 1/4 cup in pan., Add onion to drippings; cook and stir over medium-high heat until tender, 3-5 minutes. Stir in vinegar, honey and mustard. Cook and stir 1 minute. Add bacon and apples to Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with onion mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Steam the Brussels sprouts for 8 - 10 minutes.
• Prepare the dressing by combining the rest of the ingredients in a small jar. Shake well.
• Drizzle the dressing over top and toss gently.
• Note: I usually start with 1 T of oil and work from there. It is just a preference.
