Jewish Deli Strata Recipes

Steps:

• Shingle bread slices and salmon in an 8-by-12-inch (3-quart) baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Whisk together eggs, creme fraiche, milk, dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; pour over bread. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with a rack in middle. Uncover and bake until cheese has melted and strata is puffed and golden, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then serve, with capers, lemon wedges, and onion slices alongside.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease a 1 1/2 quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
• Whisk the eggs, milk, half-and-half, nutmeg, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Fold the greens, meat, bread and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese into the mixture. Pour into the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining cheese.
• Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Uncover and bake until the strata is puffed, golden brown at the edges and set in the center, about 15 minutes more. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
