  4               cups  brussel sprouts
  5               cups  water -- salted

  2        tablespoons  coarse-grained mustard

Preparation:

Carefully wash the sprouts, trim them stems, and cut an X into the bottom of each with a sharp knife. Bring salted water to a boil and drop in sprouts. Boil about 15 minutes, until fork-tender. Drain well. Melt the butter in a large skillet and stir in the mustard and pepper. Add the sprouts and toss to coat well. Add more salt and pepper, if desired.
