• Drain the sprouts and plunge them into the ice bath. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
• Transfer the sprouts to a clean dish towel and pat dry.
• Spread the sprouts on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with oil; toss to coat.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH WALNUT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Blanch brussels sprouts in boiling salted water for 30 seconds; drain and immediately transfer to a large bowl of ice water to cool. Spin in a salad spinner to dry leaves (or pat dry with kitchen towels). DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Wrap in a kitchen towel, transfer to a resealable plastic bag, and chill.
• Crush 2 1/2 tablespoons walnuts with a rolling pin or the side of a knife; set aside. Melt butter with 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Add shallot and crushed walnuts; cook, stirring frequently, until shallot softens, about 2 minutes. Whisk in vinegar, mustard, and sugar. Remove vinaigrette from heat; season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Transfer to a container, cover, and chill. Let vinaigrette come to room temperature before serving.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PEANUT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees and place a pan of hot water in the bottom, to help prevent the sprouts from becoming tough. Turn on convection if you have it.
• Toss sprouts with peanut oil, sprinkle with salt, and spread out on one or two baking sheets. Roast 15 minutes. Stir and continue cooking 10 to 20 minutes more, until browned and crisp. Check sprouts every 5 minutes or so; if they are browning too fast, reduce heat by 25 degrees and turn off convection.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a bowl, whisk together vinegar and honey. Whisk in peanut butter until thick and creamy. Add water until consistency is like creamy salad dressing. Season to taste with hot sauce, if using.
• When sprouts are tender and browned, remove from oven, transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle with salt. Add half the dressing and toss well.
• Take orange and cut a thick slice off the bottom and the top to make flat surfaces. Rest bottom on a cutting board and use a small, sharp knife to carve off all the peel and pith, cutting from top to bottom and following the curve of the fruit. When all the orange flesh is exposed, cut out each segment by slicing along the white membranes. Gently loosen from the orange and set aside.
• Add half the orange and half the cherries to bowl and toss. Taste. Adjust with more dressing, orange and cherries until flavors are balanced. Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with fried shallots or fresh mint, or both, if using.
