SAUTEED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Trim the hard edge of the stem from the Brussels sprouts, then cut each one into thin slices or shreds; you can do this on a mandoline, with the blade side of a box grater, or with a knife.
• Put half the oil or butter in a large skillet over med-high heat.
• When the oil is hot or the butter is melted, add the sprouts and 1/4 cup water; sprinkle with salt and pepper, turn the heat to medium, and cover.
• Cook, undisturbed, for about 5 minutes, or until nearly tender.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil or melt the remaining butter in a small skillet over medium heat.
• Add the nuts and cook, stirring almost constantly, until fragrant but just barely browned, about 5 minutes.
• When the sprouts are ready, uncover and increase the heat back to med-high.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until any remaining water evaporates and the sprouts are fully tender, another 5-10 minutes.
• Stir in the vinegar; garnish with the nuts and their butter or oil and the herb; serve.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS IN HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Spread out 1/2 cup plus 8 hazelnuts evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
• Toast hazelnuts in the preheated oven, stirring frequently, until the skins crack and they turn light brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn them. Remove from oven and set aside until cool enough to handle. Roll cooled nuts between the palms of your hands to remove the skins.
• Set aside 8 hazelnuts and chop them coarsely for garnish. Transfer remaining hazelnuts to a food processor and finely chop.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook shallots until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Combine remaining 5 tablespoons butter, cooked shallots, and ground hazelnuts in a bowl and blend hazelnut butter well.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts, cover, and steam until just tender, about 5 minutes.
• Melt hazelnut butter in a pot over low heat. Add Brussels sprouts and toss to coat with the nut butter. Serve sprinkled with reserved chopped hazelnuts.
