Eli Zabars Fig And Prosciutto Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Place goat cheese on a sheet of plastic wrap. Top with another sheet of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to flatten into a 4x8-inch rectangle.
• Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and cover goat cheese with slices of prosciutto, slightly overlapping the edges. Cover prosciutto with a new sheet of plastic wrap and flip both sheets over so the goat cheese layer is now facing up.
• Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Cover goat cheese evenly with figs, basil, and black pepper. Starting from the long edge, roll tightly to form a log. Wrap log in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

Steps:

• Remove crusts from bread, and cut each slice into four squares. Spread mascarpone or cream cheese on each square.
• Cut each fig lengthwise into four slices. Place a folded prosciutto slice on each square. Top with a mint leaf and a slice of fig.

Steps:

• Cut 1 baguette or Italian bread into four 5-to-6-inch pieces; split each piece horizontally.
• Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons Fig Spread on all 8 halves; layer 4 halves with 2 slices prosciutto, 2 thin slices Asiago cheese, and 2 or 3 leaves of arugula. Top with remaining bread halves. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Snip the hard stems off the figs and cut the figs in half lengthwise through the stem. With a small sharp knife, cut the prosciutto lengthwise into inch-wide strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around the center of each fig half, with the ends overlapping. Brush with olive oil and arrange cut-side up on a sheet pan.
• Roast the figs for 10 minutes, until the prosciutto is a little crisp and the figs are warmed through. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Scoop out a bit of bread from the centre of the bread halves.
• Mix the oil and basil in a small bowl and drizzle evenly over both bread halves.
• Arrange the prosciutto evenly over the bottom half of the bread.
• Gently spread the cheese over the prosciutto and top the cheese with sliced figs. Sprinkle with the lemon juice and black pepper.
• Cover with the top half of the bread and wrap in aluminum foil, leaving the seam on top open slightly.
• Bake until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through, about 15 minutes. Cut into 8 equal pieces and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Thinly slice 4 pieces of focaccia vertically.
• Place layer of figs on one piece of focaccia.
• Add a slice of prosciutto and a handful of arugula.
• Sprinkle arugula with olive oil. Season with pepper to taste. Top with another slice of bread, and press firmly on sandwich to flatten. Cut in half. Repeat from step 2 with 2 more slices bread.
