Brussels Sprouts Gratin Recipe
Scalloped potatoes or turnips often make an appearance here, and some years, a gratin of fennel was the star. This year my gratin of choice is a creamy Brussels sprouts gratin, with sprouts that have been blanched and then baked in a sauce with pancetta, shallots, and Gruyere. Smaller ones are more tender and sweeter. They are good for cooking whole. Larger ones are easier to work with when cutting them in half, especially since we blanch them in advance of baking in this recipe....
