Focaccia With Asparagus, Prosciutto, and Truffle Oil

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 01:43:39 -0400

Again, this was taken off of truffle-oil.com's website and I'm posting it here in case I lose it. Please review if you make this. I'm also guessing on yield and times again, as well as servings as they didn't include this in recipe. The site says to add the truffle when everything else is finished. Also, it suggests using a pizza stone. -- posted by Marla Jones

This frittata takes only six ingredients usually found on hand. It's so easy to put together. Though I've only made it with Jarlesberg Swiss, you can use your favorite cheese(s) such as fontina, mozzarella, provolone, jalapeno jack, asiago; or a combination of a couple. I increase the olive oil to a tablespoon. Recipe from Simply Recipes online. -- posted by Kathy228

Asparagus, Crab & Tarragon Bisque Shanachie

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 16:21:54 -0400

This was a demonstration recipe at Charlotte Anne Albertson's Cooking School (Wynnewood, PA), for "Awesome Soups with Brian Duffy" (Jan 24, 2006). Brian Duffy (http://www.chefduff.com) hosted the Food Network shows "Date Plate" and "Hot Trends 2005" and is executive chef at Shanachie, an Irish restaurant in Ambler, PA. Shanachie specializes in soups ... and this is one of their most frequently requested seafood soups, especially in the spring, when fresh asparagus is available. Crab claw meat is less expensive and more flavorful than lump crab meat and so is the ingredient of choice. Recipe will make 3/4 gallon, approximately 12 8 oz servings. -- posted by Gandalf The White

Roasted Asparagus With Lemon Vinaigrette --Courtesy Melissa D'ar

Tue, 11 Aug 2009 10:51:36 -0400

Simple, fresh, and bright. Serve warm or cold. Recipe by Melissa d'Arabian, winner of "The Next Food Network Star" 2009. Her show is called "Ten Dollar Dinners with Melissa d'Arabian". This recipe is from "Savory Savings" episode. This would be wonderful dish for a picnic. COOKS NOTE: I had more asparagus then the recipe called for so I doubled the Vinaigrette but used only about 3/4 of it. Since you have the whole lemon anyway, you might as well double it. I did not want to saturate the asparagus but felt it needed more. I also used some of the lemon zest as a garnish and served it chilled. It was wonderful... -- posted by JT'sMom

Asparagus & Corn Quiches

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 01:51:03 -0400

Quiche is always so versatile - an easy-to-prepare dinner, lunch or snack; and individual quiches are great for take-to-work lunches or for picnics or potlucks. Made with the canned vegetables, this can be made very quickly but it can, of course, also be made with fresh or frozen vegetables. If you are using frozen vegetables, steam them briefly and make sure that all excess liquid has been drained off - or saved for making soup, such as my Recipe #135453. I've adapted this recipe from one I found on the Simply Great Meals website. Conversions: 425g = approximately 131/2 ounces; 125g = 4 ounces. -- posted by bluemoon downunder

As we go into summer in the Southern Hemisphere, with temperatures already in the 30 degrees Celsius some days, a cook's thoughts lightly turns to thoughts of salad, to paraphrase Keats or Shelley! I am extremely fond of cold-smoked salmon. We also love green asparagus. Put them together, add a few extra taste notes, and you have a nice salad. This can either be a starter or a light, non-fattening lunch with an icy glass of Sauvignon Blanc! (I used local salmon trout instead of our very expensive imported salmon).

If using thinner spears, reduce the covered cooking to 3 minutes and the uncovered cooking time to 5 minutes.

Fresh asparagus spears are dipped in a seasoned wine-batter and fried until crispy and golden brown. This is a perfect recipe to disguise vegetables for picky eaters. Serve them as a side dish, appetizer, or anytime snack with either one or both of the dipping sauces. COOK'S TIP: Keep this easy wine-batter recipe on hand to use with other vegetables as well as seafood, fish, and chicken tenders. -- posted by Feast Your Eyes!

Light and refreshing yet also very filling. Add any fresh vegetables you have available. I like to pack this up for my lunch at the office with a sugar free lemonade and some grape tomatoes. I found Joseph's flaxseed lavash wraps at Walmart in the bread aisle. They have zero WW points. -- posted by Trinkets
