CIDER-GLAZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Cider-Glazed Brussels Sprouts image

Simple roasted brussels sprouts get an autumnal upgrade when they are tossed with a tangy, sweet glaze made from apple cider, apple cider vinegar and mustard. If you're making these for Thanksgiving, make the glaze (see Tip) and trim the brussels sprouts in advance, then pop the sprouts into the oven while the turkey rests. Note that this recipe is easily doubled for larger groups: Just use a larger skillet for the sauce and two sheet pans for the sprouts.

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved, quartered if very large
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots (about 2 medium shallots)
2 cups apple cider
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the brussels sprouts on a sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss well and roast for 25 to 35 minutes, tossing a few times throughout, until evenly browned and tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low. Add the shallots and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until tender and starting to brown. In a medium-small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the cider, cider vinegar, mustard, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and whisk until smooth. Add this mixture to the shallots and bring to a boil.
  • Cook over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, until reduced to about 3/4 cup and thickened. (The glaze will continue to thicken as it cools.) Set aside until ready to use.
  • Pour the glaze over the roasted brussels sprouts directly on the sheet pan, toss, and serve.

CIDER BRAISED VENISON ROAST WITH SEASONAL APPLESAUCE AND BALSAMIC BRUSSELS SPROUTS



CIDER BRAISED VENISON ROAST WITH SEASONAL APPLESAUCE AND BALSAMIC BRUSSELS SPROUTS image

Categories     Fruit     Game     Braise     Dinner

Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

Applesauce
2 Tbsp Butter - unsalted
3 cups Granny Smith Apples - pealed, cored and diced
3 cups Braeburn Apples - pealed, cored and diced
2 cups Honeycrisp Apples - pealed, cored and diced
1/4 cup clover honey
2 cups water
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp clover
1/4 tsp all spice
2 cups water
Venison
2 - 3 lbs Venison Roast (either shoulder or rump, boneless)
1 qt Apple Cider
Cheese cloth and butcher string or Herb infusing ball
2 sprigs fresh Thyme
3 whole cloves
2 sprigs of Fresh Parsley
1 Fresh Bay Leaf, break in half
Brussels Sprouts
1 Tbsp Olive Oil (Extra Virgin Preferred)
1 Tbsp unsalted or clarified butter
1 garlic leaf, peeled and fine diced
1 shallot halved and sliced
1 lbs Fresh Brussels sprouts halved
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp brown sugar

Steps:

  • Applesauce: Melt butter in a slow-cooker on low, while pealing, coring and dicing the apples. Make sure the butter is evenly distributed across the bottom of the slow cooker, then add apples, 2 cups of water and honey on low for 30 minutes; stir occasionally. Next add the cinnamon, nutmeg, clover, and all spice, and 2 more cups of water, set slow cooker to high for 4 hours. If you do not have a slow-cooker, preparation can be done in the same order using a 10 qt stockpot on the stovetop. When cooking on the stovetop simmer on low following the same time instructions above, no need to cover, and stir more frequently than when using the slow-cooker. Venison: Clean any excess fat from roast. Warm Apple Cider in either an 8 qt stockpot or a standard crock-pot, on mid-high heat for the stockpot on the stove top, or high heat in the crock-pot until just before the Cider boils. Just before the Cider boils turn either stock pot or crock pot down to lowest cooking temperature and add the roast and assemble the Thyme, Parsley, Cloves, and Bay leaf in the cheese cloth or herb ball. Add the herb mix, and cover the pot. Simmer on low for 1.5 hours for a 2 lbs roast and 2 hours for a 3 lbs roast, occasionally basting the meat with the liquid using a ladle or other long handled spoon. Remove from liquid and rest for at least 10 minutes. The meat when removed and rested should be close to medium, slightly medium rare. Brussels Sprouts: Heat Olive oil and butter in a large sauté pan on stove top on medium heat. Add Garlic and Shallot, and sauté for 1 minute, or until soft. Add Brussels sprouts and sauté, occasionally turning until all vegetables start to brown lightly, approximately 10 minutes. Reduce heat to mid-low and added Balsamic, stir lightly to deglaze pan. Stir in brown sugar and reduce until a glaze forms (the liquid will coat the back of the spoon), approximately 15 minutes.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH APPLE CIDER DRESSING



Brussels Sprouts with Apple Cider Dressing image

When I'm thinking about fall, several kinds of produce come to mind -- pumpkins, apples and squash of course, but also Brussels sprouts. Anyone who thinks they don't like Brussels sprouts should give them another chance with this recipe. Apple cider provides a sweet glaze for the sprouts, which adds to the natural sweetness the vegetable develops during roasting. I think this dish is as satisfying as dessert!

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cups apple cider
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard or Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl, then drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Spread the sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast the sprouts until brown and crispy and tender but not mushy, 25 to 35 minutes, stirring gently about half way through the cooking time.
  • While the sprouts roast, make the cider dressing. Heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until tender and slightly brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the cider, vinegar and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes to reduce the liquid and thicken the dressing. Remove from heat, stir in the honey and mustard and let cool slightly.
  • When the sprouts are ready, remove from the oven and toss in a large bowl with the cooled dressing.
