Brussels Sprouts Salad With Warm Bacon Vinaigrette Recipes

SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD WITH BACON VINAIGRETTE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• To prepare the Brussels sprouts, using a mandoline, a very sharp knife, or the thinnest slicing blade on a food processor, very thinly slice the Brussels sprouts into fine shreds. Transfer to a serving bowl and, using your hands, fluff and separate the shreds. In a frying pan over medium heat, fry the bacon until brown and crisp and the fat renders, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon pieces to a paper towel, then sprinkle over the salad. Discard all but ¼ cup of the hot bacon fat. Re-warm over medium then whisk in the grainy mustard, cider vinegar, and honey until well combined. Drizzle over the shaved Brussels sprouts and apples and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the Brussels sprouts with one tablespoon of the oil and spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until the Brussels sprouts are fairly tender and browned in spots. Let cool slightly, on the baking sheet, for about 10 minutes.
• While the Brussels sprouts are cooking, make the dressing. In a food processor place the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, anchovies, garlic, mustard, scallions, parsley and pepper and process until pureed.
• Drizzle the Brussels sprouts with about half of the dressing and toss to coat. Add more dressing if you like. Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and serve warm, with the rest of the dressing on the side.
