Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Vinegar, Cranberries and Pecan Nuts

Cut the Brussels sprouts into two and season them with some olive oil and salt. Place the sprouts, flat sides down, onto a baking tray so they soften from the inside and get crunchy outside. Leave the sprouts in the oven at 180°C. Meanwhile, immerge the cranberries into a bowl with warm water. Mix the sprouts halfway through cooking, in order to brown the flat side as well, sprinkle abundantly with pecan nuts and place the tray into the oven one more time. Once the Brussels sprouts get perfectly brown and the pecan nuts roasted, place everything into the serving dish, adding cranberries and a drizzle of a good creamy Balsamic Vinegar of Modena along with some salt and pepper according to the personal taste. The dish can be served hot or at room temperature: irresistible in any case!

Orange Tempeh and Asparagus with Balsamic Vinegar

Dice the tempeh and asparagus, then place the tempeh into a bowl and sprinkle abundantly with the sauce made of miso, Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI, orange juice and oil. Mix well and place the mixture onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for around 12 minutes at 180°C, stir and add diced asparagus. Keep on cooking for 10 minutes more until the asparagus softens. At this point, move the meal into a salad bowl, sprinkle with more sauce and mix delicately. Serve the meal with some rice and a slice of baked bread along with a pinch of chia or sesame seeds according to the personal taste.
