Ham And Fresh Peach Chutney On Corn Bread Food

SUNNY'S EASY PEACHY JALAPENO CORNBREAD

Steps:

• For the batter: Add the cornbread mix to a large bowl. Whisk the eggs, milk, peaches, chili-lime seasoning and jalapenos in a medium bowl. Fold the egg mixture into the cornbread mix. Let rest 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Brush 8 mini loaf pans with the melted butter. Pour a scant 1/2 cup of the batter into each of the loaf pans and spread evenly (each should be about three-quarters of the way full). Bake until the tops are golden, about 20 minutes.
• For the glaze: Add 1/4 cup of the reserved peach syrup to a small pot, then add the lime juice and butter. Stir together and heat until everything begins to simmer. Remove the cornbread from the oven and immediately pour the glaze over the top of the loaves. Allow it to soak in. Serve warm.

HAM AND FRESH PEACH CHUTNEY ON CORN BREAD

Steps:

• To Make Corn Bread:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. and generously butter a jelly-roll pan. 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch.
• In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and Cheddar.
• In a small bowl, whisk together egg, butter, sour cream and milk. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture until just combined and spread evenly in prepared pan. (It is important to spread batter evenly or corn bread will be too thin and crisp in places.) Bake corn bread in the middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until sides pull away from pan and top is golden. While corn bread is hot, with a sharp knife, loosen corn bread edges and cut into twelve 2 1/2-inch squares, preferably with a square cutter. With a metal spatula carefully transfer corn bread to a cutting board to cool and trim.
• Halve each square diagonally to form 24 triangles. Corn bread triangles may be made 2 days ahead and kept in a sealed plastic bag, chilled. Corn bread will soften slightly. If crisper corn bread is desired, reheat in a 350°F. oven until crisp before proceeding with recipe.
• To Assemble Hors d'Oeuvres:
• Top each corn bread triangle with a folded ham slice and 1 teaspoon chutney.
• Halve and pit peach and cut into 1/8-inch dice (about 1 1/4 cups).
• In a bowl, combine peach, raisins, chili, gingerroot, shallot and cumin. Chill chutney, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
• About 1 hour before serving, stir in remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste. Serve chutney at room temperature. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
• Can be made in 45 minutes or less but requires additional unattended time.

PEACH CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Score an "x" on the bottom of the peaches and place in boiling water for 30 seconds.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and immediately submerge in ice water.
• Remove peelings and pits being sure to remove any of the "red" from the middle.
• Dice into small chunks.
• Combine all ingredients in large pot and bring to a simmer.
• Simmer until thickened, about 1 hour.
• While simmering prepare glass jars, lids and rings according the USDA guidelines for water bath canning.
• Ladle hot chutney into jars leaving a 1/4" headspace.
• Wipe rims and place seals on top and screw rings.
• Process in water bath for 10 minutes.

VIRGINIA HAM AND MELON APPLE CHUTNEY ON CORN BREAD ROUNDS

Steps:

• Make corn bread rounds:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 350°F.
• Whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together butter, milk, and egg in a small bowl, then add to cornmeal mixture and stir just until combined. Spread (or pat out) batter in a very thin even layer in a well-greased 13- by 9- by 2-inch metal baking pan (preferably using an offset spatula).
• Bake until firm and pale golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Cut out 24 rounds from hot corn bread with cookie cutter and transfer rounds to a rack to cool. (Reserve remaining corn bread for another use.)
• Top rounds:
• Spread each round with a thin layer of mustard and top with a few strips of ham and about 1 teaspoon chutney.

FRESH PEACH CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Put the vinegar and both sugars into a non-reactive pot, place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Add the red pepper, onion, jalapeño, raisins, garlic, ginger, salt and simmer 10 minutes. Add the peach segments and simmer an additional 5-10 minutes. If the peaches are still firm allow to cook several minutes more. If you would like the syrup thicker you may also allow to cook for a minute or two to reduce liquid.
• Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes in the pot. Serve at room temperature. Transfer all excess to a clean container and refrigerate, covered, for up to one week.

HAM AND CHUTNEY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Split the french rolls or bread slices in half, sandwich fashion.
• Spread each of four bread slices with one-and-a-half tablespoons of mustard and spread each of the remaining slices with one tablespoon of mayonnaise.
• Cover half of the mustard-smeared bread slices with a quarter of the ham slices and top each serving with one tablespoon of chutney. Cover with the mayonnaise bread slices and press to seal.

CORN BREAD SHORTCAKE WITH HAM & FRESH PEACH SALSA RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• To prepare salsa, combine the peaches, cranberries, orange juice, shallots, chopped cilantro, brown sugar, lime juice, cumin, and red pepper in a bowl, and toss gently. Cover and chill for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 425°F. To prepare shortcake, lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt, stirring well with a whisk. Make a well in the center of mixture. Combine buttermilk, oil, and egg in a bowl; add to flour mixture. Stir just until moist. Spoon batter into an 8-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425°F for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes on a wire rack. Turn shortcake out onto a cutting board or work surface; cut into 9 equal pieces. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add ham to pan, and sauté 1 minute on each side or until lightly browned. Remove from heat; keep warm. Cut shortcake pieces in half horizontally. Place 1 bottom half on each of 9 plates; top each serving with 1 tablespoon salsa, 1 ham slice, and top half of shortcake. Top each serving with 2 tablespoons salsa. Garnish with cilantro sprigs, if desired.
