BRUSSELS SPROUTS GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook uncovered until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the Brussels sprouts are cold, drain well, and cut in halves or quarters, depending on size. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until limp and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat and stir in the Brussels sprouts. Season with salt and pepper then toss for about 1 minutes to evenly distribute the seasonings. Arrange bacon and Brussels sprouts on the prepared baking dish. Pour cream evenly over the Brussels sprouts, then sprinkle breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese on top. Distribute pieces of butter over the bread crumbs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425°F. Put the Brussels sprouts in a 9x13-inch ceramic or metal baking dish, and toss with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Spread the sprouts evenly in the dish and roast, tossing once halfway through, until tender and browned in spots, 25-30 minutes.
• While the sprouts roast, place the bread crumbs in a medium bowl. Pour the remaining tablespoon of melted butter over the crumbs and sprinkle with ⅛ teaspoon salt. Mix in the Gruyère. Set aside.
• When the sprouts are tender and browned, pour the cream evenly over the sprouts and sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon salt. Continue baking until the cream has thickened to a saucy consistency, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven. Set the oven to broil and position a rack to 6 inches below the broiler. Sprinkle on the bread crumb mixture. Broil the gratin until the crust is golden brown, 3-5 minutes (keep a close eye on it so it doesn't burn).
• Make ahead tip: This recipe can be prepared a day ahead of time. Reheat in a 350°F oven, uncovered, until warm throughout and crisp on top, 10-15 minutes.

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until bright green and beginning to soften. Remove the sprouts with a slotted spoon and drop into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
• Make the sauce by melting the butter and flour together in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until smooth and bubbling, about 1 minute; slowly whisk in milk and continue to cook, whisking frequently, until thick and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Season the sauce well with salt and heavily with pepper.
• Halve the Brussels sprouts through the core and put them in an even layer in a 2 quart baking dish. Pour the sauce over the sprouts and sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top. Bake in the center of the oven for 10 to 15 minutes until the top is golden and bubbling.

Steps:

• Pre-heat your oven to 400. Wash the sprouts, trim the ends & cut in half. Shake off excess water & lay them in a shallow roaster, casserole & gratin dish big enough to hold them in a single layer. Some overlapping is fine; you just don't want them piled up on top of one another or they'll steam rather than roast. Add 1 Tblsp. of the olive oil, and toss them around until they're all coated with oil. Sprinkle on some salt & pepper. Roast them for 25 minutes or so; you want them to start browning & crisping but not burnt!
• While those are roasting, do two things: 1. measure out the whipping cream & stir in the nutmeg until its evenly distributed; set aside. 2. mix the bread crumbs, grated cheddar, garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt & pepper. Toss these together, then drizzle a Tblsp. of olive oil over this topping mixture and toss it around again until that's evenly distributed throughout. The little bit of oil helps the bread crumbs crisp up lovely when you put it in the oven.
• After you take your Brussels sprouts out of the oven, drizzle the nutmeg/cream over them & stir it around a bit until the sprouts are coated with cream. Then sprinkle on the topping mixture. Put it back in the oven for another 20 minutes until the topping's nice & crispy.
• Remove from oven & let it cool for maybe 5 minutes while you get everything else to the table. I hope you enjoy!
