Bacon Mustard Brussel Sprouts
Bitter like the cabbage that they are when undercooked, this preparation can serve as a conversion method for those who reluctantly thought they didn't like Brussel sprouts.
1/2 lb. bacon, in 1/2" dice (yes, smoked. yes, American. no, not pancetta)
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 lb. brussel sprouts (medium sized - preferably not too young, not too old)
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp whole grain Pommery mustard
salt & pepper
Cut brussel sprouts into 1/4" thick rings, crosswise, discarding stem ends. Add each cut sprout into a bowl containing lemon juice and toss after every few additions.
Sizzle bacon over medium heat until crispy in a wide saute pan. Strain bacon through a metal colander or sieve, catching fat in a metal container underneath. Return three Tbsp bacon fat to pan and infuse garlic over medium heat. Add sliced sprouts and turn heat to high, stirring. Cook, stirring often for 2 minutes. Add mustard and salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking another 2 minutes, until sprouts are wilted but still green.
Remove from heat, toss in bacon bits and serve!
