Frico Caldo With Prosciutto And Garden Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place potato in a small saucepan with enough water to cover; season with salt. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, 45 to 60 minutes. Drain and peel.
• Immediately transfer potato to a medium bowl and crush into 1/4-inch pieces using a fork.
• Heat butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent. Add to bowl with potato, along with cheese; season with a pinch of salt and nutmeg. Stir until just combined.
• Heat a 5- to 6-inch square cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add enough grapeseed oil to coat bottom of skillet; remove any excess oil and discard. Add potato mixture and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Using a spatula, turn frico and continue cooking 5 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together shallots, cilantro, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil; season with salt. Cut frico into 4 wedges and place each on a serving plate, along with salad greens topped with radishes, and sliced speck. Drizzle vegetables with cilantro vinaigrette; serve immediately.

Steps:

• Slice prosciutto into strips that are 1 inch long and 1/4 inch wide.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes. Drain and cool under cold running water to stop the cooking process.
• Mix oil, vinegar, garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a jar. Put the lid on the jar and shake into an emulsion.
• Place tortellini, prosciutto, Gorgonzola cheese, bell peppers, and onion in a large bowl. Pour the vinaigrette over the top and toss lightly with 2 large spoons. Enjoy immediately or allow the flavors to meld for 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Place the first 8 ingredients in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Place arugula, onion and herbs in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1/3 cup vinaigrette and toss lightly to coat. In large serving bowl layer with a quarter of the arugula mixture, honeydew, mozzarella cheese and prosciutto. Repeat layers 3 times. Serve with remaining vinaigrette.

Steps:

• For the frico chips: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat. Place eight 1-tablespoon mounds of cheese on the mat and gently tap down until flat. Bake until golden and bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Let the frico chips cool until firm, about 5 minutes.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• For the zucchini: Using a pastry brush, brush the zucchini halves with the oil and season with the salt. Grill until tender, 4 to 5 minutes each side. When cool enough to handle, cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch cubes.
• For the shrimp: In a medium bowl, mix together the oil, soy sauce, garlic, zest, parsley, chives, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss until coated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Grill until pink and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes each side. Chop into 1/2-inch pieces.
• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, agave, mustard, salt and pepper until smooth.
• In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, shrimp, dressing and avocado. Gently toss until all the ingredients are coated.
• Using a slotted spoon, spoon the salad into 8 small ramekins. Garnish with frico chips and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange bread pieces on one side of a rimmed baking sheet; toss with 1 teaspoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Lay prosciutto on other side of sheet. Bake until both are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely on sheet. Crumble prosciutto.
• In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar and 2 teaspoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Add romaine, croutons, prosciutto, beans, and scallion and toss to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with silicone mat.
• Working in 2 batches, scoop 8 mounds of finely grated Parmesan or Grana Padano cheese (1 tablespoon per mound) onto mat, spreading each mound about 3" wide and spacing at least 1" apart.
• Bake cheese until light brown and melted, 5-6 minutes (check occasionally while baking so it won't turn too brown). Remove sheet from oven and let frico cool completely. (To shape frico, leave baking sheet in oven with door open; use a small offset spatula to remove frico one at a time, working quickly to shape. To form tuile-like shapes, gently roll warm frico around the handle of a wooden spoon. To form cups, press onto the bottom and up the sides of a mini muffin pan. Keep frico warm until ready to mold; it hardens quickly as it cools.)
