Endive Salad With Egg And Anchovy Recipes

Steps:

• Croutons: Heat oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium-low. Add brioche cubes and cook, stirring often, until golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to paper towels; let cool completely. Croutons can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
• Salad: With the side of a knife, mash anchovies and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a paste. In a small skillet, heat oil and garlic over medium until garlic is sizzling and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; remove garlic with a slotted spoon and reserve for another use. Return skillet to medium heat and add anchovy mixture. Cook, stirring, until mixture dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; slowly whisk in lemon juice. Let cool completely.
• In a large bowl, toss endive leaves with dressing; lightly season with salt and pepper. Divide among 4 plates and serve, topped with croutons and pepper.

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Pound together (or hand chop) garlic and 4 anchovy fillets to make a rough paste. Transfer mixture to a small bowl.
• Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, zest and Dijon mustard and stir well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk in olive oil. Taste and adjust lemon juice, salt and pepper. Just before preparing salad, taste vinaigrette again and adjust seasoning as needed.
• Cut the bottoms off of endives and discard any withered outer leaves. Separate the leaves and pile them in a large salad bowl. (Cut the hearts in half or quarters lengthwise.) Add the radicchio, if using.
• Just before serving, sprinkle leaves lightly with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Toss gently, then distribute among six to eight plates. Garnish each plate with an egg cut in half or into quarters, and an anchovy fillet, then drizzle plates with remaining dressing.

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Put chopped anchovies, lemon juice and zest, preserved lemon (if using) and garlic in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk in olive oil.
• Prepare the salad: Place sliced fennel in a salad bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Add olives and dressing, and toss to coat.
• Transfer to serving platter or individual plates. Surround with halved eggs (draped with more anchovy fillets, if desired), and scatter parsley leaves over the top.

Steps:

• Mix chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard and celery salt in medium bowl. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Cut off and discard root ends of endive. Separate leaves. Place 1 generous teaspoon egg mixture at wide end of each leaf. Place 1 shrimp atop each; sprinkle with paprika.
• On large platter, arrange leaves in concentric circles resembling flower. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)

Steps:

• Mix together the chopped eggs, mayo, mustard, celery salt, and minced dried onion.
• You can make the filling 1 day ahead- at this point, you'd need to cover and refrigerate it.
• Cut off and discard the root ends of endive, and separate leaves.
• Rinse leaves under cool running water, then shake dry.
• On the wide end of each leaf, place a generous teaspoon the egg mixture, and then place 1 shrimp atop each.
• Sprinkle each filled leaf with paprika.
• And now for the artistic portion of the program: for serving: on a large platter, arrange the filled leaves in concentric circles, resembling a flower. If you like, you can place colorful edible flowers in the middle and arrange the leaves around them, for a little color and artistry! You can arrange them on the platter 4 hours ahead, then cover and chill until serving.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
• Chill until ready to serve on crackers.

Steps:
