Shredded Raw Brussels Sprouts Salad With Red Peppercorns And Honey Mustard Vinaigrette
- Salad
- 20 young brussels sprouts trimmed to just the very light green tender leaves
- 1 medium carrot
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 lemon in juice, sieved
- 8 red peppercorns hand crushed
- Salad Dressing
- 2/3 cup canola oil
- 1/8 cup lemon juice sieved
- 3 tablespoons mirin rice wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey - runny
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- Salt
- 12 red peppercorns
- 1/3 cup pine nuts
- Trim the young brussels sprouts very well until you only have the very light green leaves. Using a mandolin slice them paper thin leaving the stem.
- Put the sliced brussels sprouts in a large plate, drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice, add the crushed red peppercorns and cover with plastic film. Marinate for 1 hour.
- Peel the carrot and then with a carrot peeler make thin short shavings of carrot. Set aside.
- In a frying pan with just a dab of oil fry the pine nuts until just golden - don't overcook them as they will become sour and taste of burnt. Remove immediately and let dry on a paper kitchen towel.
- Make the Honey Mustard Vinaigrette: In a bowl whisk together mustard, honey, rice vinegar, lemon juice and the salt. While whisking, slowly add the oil.
- In a bowl mix the sliced brussels sprouts including all the marinade ingredients, the shredded carrot and half the honey mustard vinaigrette. Check the seasoning.
- Divide in individual plates, drizzle some honey mustard vinaigrette around and on top, add some pine nuts and red peppercorns.
- If making ahead, do up to step 6, cover with plastic film and only plate when ready to serve.
