Oven Baked European Style Salami Recipes

Steps:

• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 325°F.
• Arrange salami slices in 1 layer on 2 large baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until edges are crisp and beginning to curl, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer slices to a rack to cool. (They will crisp as they cool.)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the salami slices on a baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each slice. Bake until the edges are crispy and stiff, about 10 minutes. Transfer the salami chips to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess fat. Serve immediately or store, refrigerated, in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and blend well. Shape the meat into 3 logs about 8 inches long. Wrap tightly in a few layers of cheesecloth and tie the ends tightly with cotton twine. Refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 200 to 225.
• Place the logs directly on the middle oven rack with a pan on the lower rack to catch any drippings. Cook for 6 - 8 hours.
• The logs will be cooked in five hours. Over the next 3 hours, they will become drier. To discover how dry you prefer the salami to be, you could remove one of the 3 logs from the oven after six hours, one after seven hours and finally after eight hours. Mark the log so you will know your preference.
• When done, place the logs on a cookie rack and allow to cool. Remove the cheesecloth before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium cast-iron pan or braiser, bring the tomatoes and sauce, olives, salami and olive oil to a simmer over medium-high heat. Season with pepper and salt if necessary (the salami and the olives can be salty).
• Arrange the mozzarella on top, make 4 wells and crack an egg into each. Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the basil on top and drizzle with more olive oil. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the eggs are set but still runny, about 20 minutes.
• Toast the bread in a toaster and then rub with the garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with grated Pecorino and serve with the baked eggs.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Partially slice the salami into 1/4-inch thick slices, making sure the cuts do not go all the way through. Place the salami into the prepared baking dish, and bake for 1 hour. Drain off the grease.
• Mix the barbecue sauce and brown sugar together in a bowl, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Pour about 2 cups of the sauce over the salami, and retain the rest for basting. Return the salami to the oven and bake for 45 minutes more, basting occasionally with the reserved sauce. Serve on a platter with a knife so guests can cut their own slices.
