Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Blanch the vegetables:


    Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Cook the Brussels sprouts until bright green, about 7 minutes. Transfer them with a slotted spoon to the ice water. Once cool, remove them and pat dry. Blanch the radishes in the same way until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the shallots and cook until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts and radishes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring, until heated through, 3-5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of water, then gently whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until melted. Stir in the tarragon and parsley.

    Note


    Blanch vegetables (Step 1) 1 day in advance; cover and refrigerate.
