Antipasto For Dinner Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to high; add the bread in batches and toast until golden on both sides. Set aside and season with salt.
• Whisk the vinegar, the remaining 5 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Add the radicchio, celery, salami, basil, mozzarella and olives; toss to coat.
• Place 1 romaine half on each plate. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spoon the salad onto each wedge, drizzling any remaining dressing on top; serve with the toasts.

Steps:

• Arrange the meats, cheeses, and foccacia on a large platter. Arrange a platter of Pinzimonio. Place the Marinated Olives and Roasted Red Pepper Salad in small serving bowls. Serve, allowing guests to compose their own assortment of antipasti on their plate.;
• Assorted cut-up vegetables (such as carrots, celery, fennel bulb, radishes, red and orange bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes)
• Stir the oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl to blend. Arrange the vegetables on a platter. Serve the vegetables with the dip.
• Stir the oil, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes in a heavy small skillet over medium heat just until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Add the olives and toss to coat. Add the basil; toss to coat. Serve.
• Preheat the broiler. Cover a heavy baking sheet with foil. Arrange the bell peppers on the baking sheet. Broil until the skins brown and blister, turning the peppers over occasionally, about 15 minutes. Enclose the peppers in a resealable plastic bag. Set aside until cooled to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• Peel, seed, and cut the peppers into 1/2-inch thick strips. Toss the pepper strips, olives, oil, capers, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to combine. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients in large pot. Boil 5 minutes.
• Add next 4 ingredients, boil 10 minutes.
• Add balance of ingredients. Try not to break up shrimp and tuna too much. Bring to just boiling.
• Process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes.
• Note: *Drain everything except olives and pickled onion juice. Biffy and Frank's flub (taste great.) Omit vinegar.
• Optional - small amount of brown sugar, HP sauce, chopped garlic, hot pepper sauce (dried or fresh) WE NEVER USE THESE.
• Something sure has changed with Recipe Zaar! When trying to put the ingredients in it was a big pain in the butt for the sizes. I've converted the grams to ounces but I didn't have everything in my cupboard to actually look at so I guessed. But most cans come pretty standard, and the "Frozen Shrimp" is a large bag -- it wouldn't let me put just "large.".

Steps:

• In a large bowl with enough lightly salted water to cover, place the cauliflower, pearl onions, red bell peppers, green bell peppers, celery and cucumbers. Soak 8 to 12 hours, or overnight.
• In a small bowl with enough lightly salted water to cover, place the carrots. Soak 8 to 12 hours, or overnight.
• In a large saucepan, place the vegetable oil, vinegar, tomato paste and pickling spice. Bring the mixture to a boil. Drain and rinse the carrots, and place them in the mixture. Boil 10 minutes.
• Drain and rinse the vegetables in the cauliflower mixture. Place them into the saucepan. Cook 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender but crisp.
• Stir black olives, green olives, mushrooms and tuna into the mixture. Remove the mixture from heat. Discard the wrapped pickling spice. While still hot, transfer to sterile containers and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Mix together first nine ingredients (oil, vinegars, and seasonings).
• Place garbonzo beans into a bowl, top with onion slice and garlic cloves, and pour 2 tbsp dressing over the top. Refrigerate for 1-4 hours.
• Prepare vegetables and steam each until crisp-tender. Rinse under cold water, drain, and set each aside.
• To roast bell pepper, cut into halves, remove seeds and membranes, and place cut side down on a foil-covered baking sheet. Broil pepper until skin blackens and blisters. Remove from broiler and immediately wrap each half in wetted paper towels. Place pepper halves in a paper bag, fold top down, and set aside for 5 minutes. Remove pepper halves from bad, unwrap, and remove skin. Rinse under cold water, cut into strips, and set aside.
• Remove onion and garlic from garbonzos. Drain marinade and reserve.
• Place greens on a large platter or in a large, shallow bowl (such as a large pasta serving bowl).
• Arrange vegetables, cheese, olives, and tuna attractively over bed of greens.
• Combine reserved marinade and dressing; pour over antipasto.
• Serve room temperature.
