Brussels Sprouts Salad

Recipe #134026 | 2¼ hours | 15 min prep | add private note

Posted for Zaar World Tour 2005. From a cookbook of countries along the Danube, this came from Germany. The original recipe called for a tablespoon of salt but I cut it down to a teaspoon (particularly since the sprouts are cooked in broth). Cooking time includes chilling time. I have not tried this recipe yet. Update - tried for Christmas as per Elmotoo's comment. Very pretty with tomatoes, and I thought there was too much vinegar in the dressing so I suggest reducing to 1/4 cup as per current ingredients list.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    If using frozen brussels sprouts, cook according to package directions with broth instead of water.
  2. 2
    If using fresh, wash well and trim all outer leaves. Bring broth to a boil and add sprouts. Bring to a boil again and cook uncovered for 15 minutes or until tender.
  3. 3
    Drain sprouts and place in a bowl.
  4. 4
    Pour vinegar and oil over the top and sprinkle with dried spices, salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Chill for 2-3 hours or overnight.
  5. 5
    Halve the tomatoes and add to sprouts. Taste for seasoning.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle with fresh chives and dill before serving.

Made & reviewed for ZWT 4 ~ Kumquat's Kookin Kaboodles! I happen to LOVE sprouts & was excited to try this as I've never even heard sprouts & salad in the same sentence before! I made this as written except I used apple vinegar.... the resulting salad was very tasty & even my 6 year old son ate it without complaining ; )

    Ooh, this made a nice supper warm along with a potato salad. I used red wine vinegar and halved the recipe. Thanks!

    This is a keeper! Wonderful flavor, easy to make, beautiful Christmas colors. I never liked brussel sprouts until I tried these and neither did a lot of other people I know! I used frozen brussels sprouts cooked in veggie broth, whole grape tomatoes and extra fresh chives & dill & everything else the same. Thank you!

    This is great!!!! I'm thinking...red & green = Christmas colors..do ahead vegetable...YIPPEE!!! Both kids liked it & I love it. I think fresh herbs all the way around would be good. This is a delicious & easy way to have brussels sprouts. Thank you!
