Why this spice: Collected Foods Bacon Salt and balsamic glaze make roasted Brussels taste sweet-salty and bacon-adjacent even with a little pancetta—or none.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Brussels sprouts, halved
• 2 oz pancetta or bacon, diced (optional)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 tsp Collected Foods Bacon Salt
• 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
• Black pepper

Directions

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Toss sprouts with oil and pancetta if using on a sheet pan.
2. Roast 20–25 minutes until browned and tender.
3. Toss hot sprouts with balsamic, maple, Bacon Salt, and pepper.
4. Return to oven 3 minutes to glaze. Serve immediately.
