Recipe with honey

Winter Salad with Brussels Sprouts and Heather Honey Dressing

Heather honey is bold and earthy, lending this dressing plenty of character to balance the gentle bitterness of delicate Brussels sprouts and radicchio.

⏱ Preparation 25 min · Cooking/baking time 5 min · Total 30 min · 4 servings

Ingredients

• 300 g young Brussels sprouts
• 1 small head of radicchio
• 1 tart apple
• 60 g walnut kernels
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp medium-hot mustard

Method

1. Trim the Brussels sprouts, remove the outer leaves and shave the sprouts into very thin slices with a sharp knife.
2. Cut the radicchio into fine strips, wash and spin dry.
3. Quarter the apple, remove the core and cut into thin matchsticks.
4. Toast the walnuts in a dry pan for 3-4 minutes until fragrant, then chop roughly.
5. For the dressing, stir together the apple cider vinegar, mustard and heather honey until the honey dissolves, then whisk in the walnut oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Tip: Feel free to let the Brussels sprouts sit a little longer in the dressing; this mellows their flavour and gives them a lovely bite.
