Good brussels sprouts. Definitely different. Not sure if I loved the mustard. . .just my taste buds! Next time I might try it with just wine, butter, and the syrup and then top off with fresh grated parmesean cheese. Made for ZWT4. Thanks!

yum! I love the flavor. I thought they looked prettier when halved (Thanks januarybride) so I did that but otherwise followed the directions exactly. My 4 year old, who eats hardly anything, even thought they were okay. THAT's a compliment!

Wow!! What a great flavor combo - reminded me a lot of German sweet and sour red cabbage. The guys LOVED these! Mine turned out really mushy though but I think that is because I used frozen ones. I will use fresh ones next time. Oh, and instead of plain Dijon mustard I got horseradish-Dijon. It was great! Thanks for the great recipe!
