Ingredients

  • Red potatoes
    1 lb $1.29
  • Fresh Brussels sprouts
    1 lb $3.99
  • Cheddarwurst links
    13 oz, from your leftovers
  • Olive oil
    3 tbsp
  • Diamond Crystal kosher salt
    2 tsp
  • Black pepper
    1/4 tsp
  • Dijon mustard
    1 tbsp
  • Apple cider vinegar
    2 tsp
  • Chateau Ste. Michelle Dry Riesling Washington White Wine
    1 bottle (750 ml) $9.99

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Cut 1 lb red potatoes into 3/4-inch chunks. Trim and halve 1 lb Brussels sprouts, then dry both vegetables well.

  2. Toss the potatoes and sprouts with 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread them on a sheet pan with the sprouts cut-side down.

  3. Whisk 1 tbsp Dijon mustard and 2 tsp apple cider vinegar with 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil until spoonable.

  4. Roast the vegetables for 18 minutes. Add 13 oz cheddarwurst links, keeping them whole, and roast for 15–18 minutes more, until the potatoes are tender and the center of a link reaches 160°F. Rest the cheddarwurst for 3 minutes.

  5. Divide the vegetables and cheddarwurst between two plates and spoon the mustard dressing over them.

Drink pairing: A dry Riesling balances the rich cheddarwurst and tangy mustard.

Wine picks:

  • Chateau Ste. Michelle Dry Riesling Washington White Wine $9.99 1 bottle (750 ml)
  • Trimbach Riesling $30.99 1 bottle (750 ml)

Why it works: The dish’s smoky cheddarwurst, roasted Brussels sprouts, and tangy Dijon dressing call for crisp acidity and a dry, refreshing finish. The first choice is explicitly dry; the second adds a more refined, mineral-driven option without the sweetness that would clash with the mustard.
