Pigs In A Blanket With Sauerkraut And Mustard Recipe 415

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the sauerkraut and relish in a small bowl; set aside.
• Unroll the crescent dough and pinch the seams together with your fingers. Cut the dough in half lengthwise, then slice each half crosswise into 12 strips. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the sauerkraut-relish mixture on each strip of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border on one short end. Sprinkle with the cheese. Place 1 frank on each strip of dough and roll the dough around the frank, pressing lightly to seal.
• Transfer to the baking sheet seam-side down; brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake until the dough is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve with Thousand Island dressing and/or mustard.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two 13x18-inch baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Prep the ingredients for the filling and set aside. 2. If using a 17-ounce puff pastry package, roll each sheet to a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut each piece lengthwise into eight 1 1/2-inch wide strips. Cut each strip crosswise into two pieces, about 4 1/2 inches long. You should have 32 pieces of pastry. 3. Spread the center of each piece of pastry with 1/2 teaspoon mustard and top with 1/2 teaspoon sauerkraut. Brush one narrow end of the pastry with egg wash, add one piece of sausage, and roll to enclose. Return to parchment-lined baking sheets. Brush the top of each pastry with egg wash and sprinkle with caraway seeds, seam-side down. Chill in refrigerator for 15 minutes. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 23 to 27 minutes. Note: If you are able to find all-butter puff pastry, such as Dufour (the preferred brand), roll the pastry sheet to a 12x18-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Cut pastry lengthwise into eight 1 1/2-inch-wide strips. Cut each strip crosswise into 4 pieces, about 4 1/2 inches long each (you should have 32 pieces of pastry), and proceed with the recipe.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl mix the egg with 1 tbsp water.
• 2. Roll out each piece of puff pastry and cut each one in half so you have 4 pieces. Make sure each piece can completely go around the brats.
• 3. Spread each piece of puff pastry with mustard. Top with sauerkraut then cheese. Lay the brat on top. Brush the sides with egg wash and fold the pastry around the brat sealing the ends. Lay seam side down on baking tray. Completely brush the whole dog with egg wash and sprinkle the caraway seeds on top. Repeat with the remaining brats. Bake about 20 minutes until browned

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the pigs and mustard greens: In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the mustard greens for about 1 minute. Remove the greens from the pot by pouring the contents into a colander. Then plunge the greens into an ice water bath. Pull the greens out of the ice water, squeeze the excess water from the greens by placing them in a clean, dry cloth and applying pressure. Once most of the water has been drained, give them a rough chop and set aside.
• Heat the butter and oil in a large cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and jalapeno. Sprinkle in 2 teaspoons kosher salt and sweat over low heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the mustard greens to the pan, turn up the heat to high and stir to fully combine. Remove from the heat and pour into a bowl. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon kosher salt, the cornmeal, cayenne pepper or red chile flakes, mustard and mayonnaise. Let the mixture cool in the bowl over an ice bath, rotating the bowl until cool, about 5 minutes.
• To assemble, place 2 teaspoons of the mustard greens mixture onto the widest part of a crescent dough triangle. Place a smoked link on top of the mustard greens. Tuck in the sides of the roll over the smoked link and roll away from you, towards the tip of the dough. Repeat with the remaining dough and links. Brush all the tops with melted butter, sprinkle with mustard seeds and smoked sea salt and bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating halfway through.
• For the chive Dijonaise: Whisk the mustard, mayonnaise, horseradish, kosher salt and chives in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
• Plate the pigs in a blanket and serve with the chive Dijonaise.

Steps:

• Cut hot dogs lengthwise 3/4 of the way through. Insert a piece of cheese or 1/2 teaspoon caramelized onions into each hot dog, if using; set aside. If not using cheese or onions, poke hot dogs several times with the tip of a knife.
• On a lightly floured work surface, working with one sheet of puff pastry at a time, roll into a 14-by-11-inch rectangle. Cut lengthwise into seven 1 1/2-inch wide strips. Cut each strip crosswise into 4 rectangles, each about 3 1/2 inches long.
• In a small bowl, beat together egg and 1 tablespoon water; set aside. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat; set aside. Place a hot dog on the narrow end of one piece of pastry. Roll to enclose, brushing with some of the beaten egg to adhere; transfer to prepared baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining hot dogs and pastry. Brush the tops of puff pastry with egg and sprinkle with seeds, if using. Transfer to refrigerator and let chill for 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Transfer baking sheets to oven and bake until puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool briefly before serving with mustard and ketchup.
