Description
These Brussels sprouts will make a believer out of anyone. Inspired by my grandfather, who grew them in his garden every fall, this dish is a little rustic, a little refined. The crispy edges, smoky bacon, and velvety mustard cream bring bold flavor to the humble sprout. Whether you’re serving them up for guests or just treating yourself, this side dish is anything but ordinary.
