BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND RAISINS



Brussels Sprouts With Bacon and Raisins image

My family is a huge fan of brussels sprouts. This slow cooking, stove-top method brings out the savory-sweet-salty-carmelized combination of this recipe wonderfully. Try using applewood bacon for, yet, even another layer of deliciousness. Remember to mind them well without overcooking. They should remain tender-crisp. From Epicurious.
