Anchovy Garlic Spread Food

ANCHOVY AND GARLIC TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Put the halved baguette on a baking sheet. Rub the cut sides with the garlic clove, then drizzle with the olive oil and spread the butter on evenly.
• Place the cut anchovies evenly on the bread and broil until brown and bubbly, about 4 minutes. Cut into 12 even pieces, crunch some salt over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

ANCHOVY TOAST WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND PIMIENTO SPREAD

Steps:

• Pimiento Spread:
• Throw the peppers, toast, walnuts, and garlic clove into the food processor and process until smooth. Add in the red wine vinegar, salt, paprika and cayenne pepper and process until combined. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the two tablespoons olive oil, until incorporated.
• Caramelized Onions:
• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet on medium high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently to avoid browning, for 5 minutes. Once the onions are tender, turn the heat down to medium low and cook for 30 minutes, or until caramelized, stirring occasionally.
• Toast:
• Toast the bread or baguette slices. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder.
• Spread the pimiento spread evenly on each slice of toast. Top with caramelized onions. Finally, top with two anchovy slices per toast. Enjoy!
• SERVING SIZE: 1 toast per person.

ANCHOïADE RECIPE

Steps:

• Fit the food processor with a blade, and set it to whirl. Drop in the garlic, so it smashes to smithereens. Drop in all the anchovies at once. Add the olive oil and vinegar. Then stop the machine, scrape down the sides, and whiz until pretty smooth.
• Spoon into a small bowl and serve with a few handfuls of fresh sugar snaps, or spoon it over roasted red and yellow peppers, or serve it as a dip for olive bread.

ANCHOVY GARLIC SPREAD

Steps:

• Saute' garlic in oil (do not brown).
• Add anchovies and cook/saute for a few minutes.
• Put mixture in blender or food processor and puree.
• Spread onto sliced French, Sour Dough or Italian bread.
• Cover each slice with desired amount of cheese.
• Place under broiler until the cheese becomes bubbly.
• Note: if you are not terribly fond of anchovies (very salty fish) I would put on a thinner spread.

BLACK OLIVE, ANCHOVY, & CAPER SPREAD (GARUM)

Steps:

• Place the olives, anchovies, capers, garlic, egg yolk, rum and mustard in a food processor and process in quick pulses to a medium-fine paste, scraping down the side of the bowl as needed. Gradually add the olive oil, pulsing several times after each addition. Scrape the mixture into a bowl and let stand at room temperature for about 1 hour so that the flavors develop. Serve with grilled bread, toast or bread sticks. The spread can be refrigerated, covered, for up to 2 weeks.
• Note: if the only pitted olives you can find are Kalamatas, soak them briefly in cold water and use fewer capers and anchovies. To pit olives, place them in a plastic bag. Lay the bag on a flat surface, and crush them lightly with the flat side of a large knife, mallet or heavy skillet. Then pick out and discard the pits. Cooking time includes standing time.

STEAK WITH ANCHOVY GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using a large heavy knife. Mash together butter, anchovy paste, lemon juice, garlic paste, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until combined well. Stir in parsley.
• Pat steaks dry and sprinkle with salt and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Sauté steaks 1 at a time, turning once, about 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
• Top steaks with a dollop of anchovy butter and slice.

BAGNA CALDA (ITALIAN GARLIC-ANCHOVY-SARDINE APPETIZER)

Steps:

• Place the canola oil in a skillet and heat over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the butter, anchovies, and sardines. Cook and stir until well blended, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

ANCHOVY BUTTER

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, using your hands or a potato masher, soften the butter. Alternatively, cream the butter using the paddle attachment of a stand mixer. The overall goal is just to get the butter soft so you can incorporate the anchovies.
• Add the mashed anchovies into the butter and continue mixing until all is fully incorporated.
• Spread out a 1-foot or bigger square of plastic wrap across your work surface, then scoop the mixed butter onto the plastic. Roll the butter into a cylinder inside the plastic wrap.
• Tie the excess plastic wrap at the ends of the cylinder into a knot, or just use little pieces of string to tie off the ends.
• Chill until needed. If you're not using it all at the same time, freeze part of it in smaller portions and thaw the amount you'd need when ready to use.
• Enjoy!

ANCHOVY DIP

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring olive oil, milk, garlic, and anchovy fillets to a simmer over medium; cook until garlic is tender, 8 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and add parsley. Pulse until smooth; season with pepper and lemon juice.

BLACK OLIVE TAPENADE WITH GARLIC, CAPERS, AND ANCHOVIES RECIPE

Steps:

• If using a food processor: Combine olives, capers, anchovies, garlic, basil (if using), other herbs, and mustard in the work bowl and process, scraping down the sides, until a finely chopped paste forms. Process in lemon juice. With the processor running, drizzle in just enough olive oil to loosen to a spreadable paste, about 2 tablespoons. Season with salt and pepper only if needed.
• If using a mortar and pestle: Roughly chop olives, capers, anchovies, and garlic, then add to mortar with basil (if using) and other herbs. Tap, crush, and smash with pestle until ingredients have been reduced to a thick paste (a little chunkiness is okay). Using pestle, work in mustard and lemon juice, then drizzle in just enough olive oil to form a spreadable paste, about 2 tablespoons. Season with salt and pepper only if needed.
