Wilted Brussels Sprouts Salad With Warm Apple Cider Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Thinly slice brussels sprouts crosswise into strips. Repeat with spinach leaves and radicchio. Place brussels sprouts, spinach, and radicchio in a large bowl, and toss to combine; set aside.
• In a small saucepan, whisk together garlic, apple-cider vinegar, honey mustard, sugar, salt, and pepper over medium heat. Slowly drizzle in olive oil while whisking constantly. Bring to a simmer, and cook until mixture thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour over brussels sprouts mixture, and toss to combine. Serve salad warm, garnished with goat cheese and caraway seeds, or store in refrigerator up to 2 days, and serve cold.

Steps:

• Cook honey and balsamic together over medium-high heat in a large saute pan, about 5 minutes. Toast walnuts in a small skillet; set aside to cool.
• Pile greens on a platter. Stir mustard into balsamic-honey dressing, then whisk in about 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil; pour over greens. Season greens with salt and pepper and garnish with walnuts, pomegranate seeds, shavings of Parmesan, and shallot.

Steps:

• In a large skillet cook the bacon over moderate heat, turning it, until it is crisp, transfer it to paper towels to drain, and discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat. In the fat remaining in the skillet cook the shallot and the apple over moderate heat, stirring, for 1 minute, add the vinegar, the cider, and salt and pepper to taste, and boil the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Whisk in the mustard, the oil, and salt and pepper to taste. In a large bowl toss the spinach with the warm dressing until it is just wilted and sprinkle the salad with the bacon.
