Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, Garlic, and Shallots

Cultural Context

Brussels sprouts have been cultivated in Europe since the 16th century and have become a staple in American kitchens, especially during the fall and winter months. This dish combines the earthy flavor of roasted sprouts with the savory richness of bacon, making it a popular side for holiday meals and gatherings. Today, variations abound, with some opting for vegan bacon or adding nuts for crunch, showcasing the versatility of this beloved vegetable.
