Pomegranate Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad

Step 1

Shred the Brussels sprouts: see the video below or go to How to Shred Brussels Sprouts.

Step 2

Seed the pomegranate: Cut the pomegranate into quarters and place them in a large bowl of water. Under the water, gently pull out the seeds with your fingers. Eventually, you’ll be able to turn the peel inside out to extract the seeds closest to the outer skin. As you work, the pomegranate seeds will sink to the bottom, while the white pith from the fruit will float to the top. When all of the seeds are extracted, skim off the white pith and strain out the water. Rinse the pomegranate seeds, then store the extra seeds in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

Step 3

Cut the apple into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the shallot into rings.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, white wine vinegar, maple syrup, and kosher salt. Gradually whisk in the olive oil 1 tablespoon at a time until thick and emulsified.

Step 5

In a large bowl, stir all ingredients together. Serve immediately.
