SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH POMEGRANATE ORANGE VINAIGRETTE AND PECANS

Steps:

• Trim the top and bottom of each orange. Put the oranges on one flat end and remove the rest of the rind in strips. Working over a bowl (to catch the juice) slice just to the left and right of each membrane, freeing each perfect wedge. Slice each segment in half crosswise and set aside. Squeeze the rest of the juice from the empty membranes into the bowl.
• Make the vinaigrette: To the bowl with the orange juice, add the vinegar, molasses, orange zest, and salt and pepper to taste, and whisk to combine. Slowly add the oil, whisking until emulsified.
• Toss the salad: In a large bowl, combine the shaved sprouts, the reserved orange segments, and the pomegranate seeds, add the vinaigrette, and toss to combine. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving or cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours. Transfer to a platter and garnish with pecans.

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:

• For the vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, orange juice and shallots. Let stand 5 minutes so the acidity in the juice can begin to break down the shallots. Whisk in the Dijon and honey until well combined. Slowly whisk in the oil until emulsified. Season aggressively with salt and add pepper.
• For the salad: Add the sprouts, apricots, hazelnuts and pecorino to the vinaigrette and toss to coat. The salad can be dressed 15 to 20 minutes in advance if you like more tender Brussels sprouts.
