Creamy Braised Brussels Sprouts image

From 'Recipes from the Root Cellar'. "This is a luxurious way of cooking Brussels sprouts, perhaps not for every day (or even every week), but the cream does have a wonderful way of taming the often unruly (read: sulfurous) flavor of Brussels sprouts. Don't underestimate the power of the salt and balsamic vinegar for bringing the flavors together; taste and adjust as needed." I think this side dish would be an appropriate addition to your Thanksgiving/Holiday menu!

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons grapeseed oil (changed from olive oil)
1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half (or quarter them if large)
2 small shallots, finely diced
1 cup heavy cream
salt, to taste
fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon dark aged balsamic vinegar, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the grape seed oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  • Toss in the Brussels sprouts and shallots; saute, stirring occasionally until the sprouts are browned in some spots; about 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the heavy cream, season with salt and pepper to taste, stirring to mix then cover.
  • Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally until the sprouts are tender enough to pierce easily with a tip of a paring knife, approximately 30-35 minutes.
  • Stir in the balsamic vinegar. Taste and add more salt and vinegar if needed.
  • Simmer, uncovered for 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to mingle. Be careful not to boil the mixture once you've added the heavy cream!
  • Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my brussels sprouts turned out bitter. I think I might have overcooked them.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The brussels sprouts were a little bland, and the sauce was a bit too rich for my taste.

I followed the recipe, but my brussels sprouts turned out a little too mushy. I think I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.
