Black Currant Dijon Brussels Sprouts

image

It took a while for me to come around to the joys of brussels sprouts. Once I started experimenting, though, a whole new veggie world opened up to me.

A few months ago, I received a jar of fancy stone ground Dijon mustard infused with black currants. I opened it up, took a sniff and immediately started dreaming up a new brussels sprout recipe.  I tried it out, tweaked it, changed my method a few times, deconstructed it,  and recreated it without the fancy mustard.

Heres the final product  hope you love it as much as I do!
