One of my favorite things on the menu at Scoozi is their Brussels Sprouts salad. I'm obsessed. The first time that I ate this was when we took my parents to Scoozi a few years ago and my mom ordered the salad and made me try it. I'm pretty sure I had never eaten a Brussels Sprout before at all, but this is definitely where my love for them began. I have often tried to recreate the salad at home and I think I have finally found something pretty close. Regardless, it's delicious so that is good enough for me. Scoozi puts currants in their salad, but I don't normally keep those on hand so I subbed in chopped pears instead. I've included the recipe for my version of the salad below. Enjoy!
Brussels Sprouts Salad
- 3 cups Brussels Sprouts, trimmed and shredded
- 1 cup Radicchio, chopped
- 1 cup Bosc Pear, thinly sliced (or other fruit: I'd suggest apples, currants, or dried cranberries)
- 1/2 cup Hazelnuts, shelled
- 2 oz. Parmesan or Romano cheese, shaved
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbs. honey
- 2 Tbs. white wine vinegar
- 4 ½ tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 Tbs. balsamic vinegar
- salt and pepper, to taste
In a small bowl or cruet combine olive oil and next 4 ingredients. Whisk or shake to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste. Dress the salads with desired amount of dressing and toss to combine. Add shaved cheese to the top of each salad and set aside.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add hazelnuts, stirring frequently until fragrant. Remove hazelnuts from heat and let cool for 2-3 minutes. While the hazelnuts are still warm place them inside a dishtowel and roll them around. This will help to remove the tough skin from the outside of the hazelnuts. Coarsely chop the cooled hazelnuts, add to the salads, and enjoy! Serves approximately 4.
