Brussels Sprouts with Brown Butter and Grain Mustard image

This recipe is a favorite of mine for Thanksgiving, but we have also used it at times in my restaurants for a side of vegetables. The sweet and bitter of the Brussels sprouts combine with the earthy mustard, toasty butter and the acid, making quite a magical flavor combination.

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds Brussels sprouts
1/4 cup butter
3 heaping tablespoons of whole grain mustard
2 tablespoons banyuls vinegar, red wine vinegar can substitute
1/4 cup roughly chopped flat leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Remove the rough exterior leaves of the Brussels sprouts along with any of the stem and discard. Remove a few layers of the greenish leaves until the yellow starts to show, keep the green leaves separate from the centers. Quarter the centers. Blanch the centers in salted boiling water until just al dente, about 4-5 minutes, and then spread on a large surface pan to cool. Very briefly plunge the green leaves into the water, remove and spread out to cool.
  • To finish the dish, use a fairly large non-reactive and not black-bottomed pan, place the butter in pan and put on a medium to medium-high heat. Cook the butter until golden brown and giving off a nutty aroma, add the grain mustard to the pan and toast slightly for just a moment. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for about two minutes or just until the sprouts are hot throughout, add the vinegar and taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper as necessary and finish with the parsley.

The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it to be a bit more creamy.

The Brussels sprouts were a bit too charred for my liking. I think I would have preferred them to be roasted for a shorter amount of time.

I found this recipe to be a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more salt and pepper.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my Brussels sprouts turned out soggy and bland. I think I might have overcooked them.
