Ristorante Acquapazza owner and chef Yoshimi Hidaka introduces a pasta dish featuring seasonal Brussels sprouts. This easy-to-make authentic Italian dish is infused with the flavors of balsamic vinegar and Parmesan cheese. Please try this seasonal delight!

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Penne 100g
  • Brussels Sprouts 10-20 pcs
  • Bacon 50g

Seasonings

  • Balsamic Vinegar 100cc
  • Parmesan Cheese 30g
  • Butter 30g
  • Olive Oil a little
  • Salt to taste

Steps

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook Penne 100g. Cooking time is approximately 12 minutes.
  2. Trim the dark ends from the base of the Brussels sprouts.
  3. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise, then into quarters. The key here is cutting them lengthwise to preserve their crunchy texture and shape.
  4. Cut the bacon into small pieces.
  5. Place the cut Brussels sprouts in a cold skillet and heat over high heat. The key here is to get a nice char without adding olive oil to bring out their aroma.
  6. Once the Brussels sprouts have a good char, add the cut bacon.
  7. When the Brussels sprouts and bacon start to char, add a little Olive Oil and slightly reduce the heat.
  8. Season with a pinch of Salt to taste. The key here is to sear over high heat first, then reduce to medium-low heat as it cooks to balance the sweetness and bitterness.
  9. Add 70-80cc of Balsamic Vinegar to the skillet and quickly heat to coat the pasta with the sauce.
  10. Drain the cooked penne and add it to the skillet with the sauce.
  11. Add Butter 30g and toss to coat the penne with the sauce.
  12. Turn off the heat and stir in Parmesan Cheese 30g.
  13. Plate the pasta with Brussels sprouts, bacon, and balsamic sauce.
