Below are my #recipes from the Spring show..hope you enjoy and Happy Summer!
Caprese Salad Skewers
Ingredients 1 container of cherry tomatoes 1 bunch of fresh basil 1 container fresh mozzarella balls 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar or 1 cup for glace Sea salt Freshly cracked black pepper
Preparation Assemble tomatoes, rolled basil leaves and mozzarella balls on medium-sized toothpicks or small wooden skewers.
Drizzle with olive oil, 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper.
To make balsamic glace (a thicker cooked down version of balsamic vinegar), add one cup of balsamic vinegar to a sauce pan over medium heat. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to simmer and cook for about 10-15 minutes until it reduces to a syrupy consistency. Dip a spoon into the vinegar to check for thickness. As it cools the syrup will also thicken.
Drizzle balsamic glace evenly over the caprese skewers and serve immediately.
Makes 12 skewers.
Straw and Hay Pasta
Ingredients
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 4 scallions 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 cup frozen baby peas, defrosted 4 ounces (1/2 cup) diced pancetta 2/3 cup chicken broth 1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half 1/2 pound dry egg fettucine or linguine 1/2 pound dry spinach fettucine or linguine 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Preparation
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Trim the scallions and slice into thin strips and then crosswise about 3 inches long. Add the scallions to the pan and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until wilted.
Add the diced pancetta, and cook for about 5 minutes or so until it gets crispy and browned.
Pour in the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the sauce to a simmer and cook until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the heavy cream and continue to simmer another 2-3 minutes.
Stir the pasta into the salted boiling water and let return to a boil, then cook for 9 minutes until al dente (slightly firm and chewy).
Remove the cooked pasta from the water with a slotted spoon and add to the sauce in the skillet, stirring to coat. Cook over high heat until liquid reduces to a creamy sauce.
Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Garnish with black pepper and freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serves 6.
Strawberry Rhubarb Eton Mess
Ingredients
Meringues 2 egg whites 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon vinegar 1/4 teaspoon corn starch 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Strawberry Rhubarb Compote 1 cup chopped rhubarb 1 cup sliced strawberries 1/2 cup orange juice 1/4 cup sugar or honey 1 teaspoon orange or lemon zest
Whipped Cream 1 1/2 cups heavy cream 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
Make the Meringues: Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
Whisk the eggs with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Increase speed to medium high and slowly add the sugar, one spoonful at a time. Continue beating until sugar is completely incorporated and the stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the vinegar, cornstarch and vanilla with a spatula.
Spoon the meringue into twelve large dollops on the baking sheet.
Bake for 90 minutes or until the surface of the meringues are dull and they feel dry to the touch. Let the meringues cool for at least an hour or overnight.
Strawberry Rhubarb Compote: Preheat a sauce pan over medium high heat, and add the rhubarb, strawberries, OJ, sugar and orange or lemon zest.
Bring to a boil and stir occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes until the fruit is soft and starts to fall apart.
Set aside and let cool to room temperature (or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator if making ahead for up to 1 week).
Whipped Cream: (can also use store-bought if you prefer to not make your own) In a large mixing bowl, whip together the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla with a whisk until soft peaks form.
Assemble the Eton Mess: Crumble meringues into a large mixing bowl.
Top with spoonfuls of whipped cream and strawberry rhubarb compote in layers and fold until just barely combined.
Divide evenly between six dessert bowls or glasses and serve immediately.
Serves 6.
