Potato And Asparagus Pizza With Sauce Gribiche Food

ASPARAGUS PIZZA

Steps:

• Trim 1/2 pound asparagus. Cut each stalk in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Form 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough (at room temperature) into an 11-by-15-inch rectangle on an oiled piece of parchment. Top with the asparagus and 1 cup shredded fontina. Slide the crust (on the parchment) onto a preheated pizza stone or inverted baking sheet. Bake at 475˚ until the bottom is crisp, 12 minutes. Top with pesto and red pepper flakes.

ASPARAGUS & POTATO PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Dust a baking sheet with cornmeal. Shape the dough into a 16-in.-long oval or rectangle and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• In a large bowl, toss the potatoes, asparagus, onion, oil, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Scatter the vegetables and cheese over the dough and bake until the potatoes are tender and the crust is golden brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes.

GRIBICHE

Steps:

• Whisk together Dijon, vinegar, and oil. Stir in eggs, parsley, cornichons, and capers. Season with salt and pepper.

SAUCE GRIBICHE

Steps:

• Whisk together mustard, white-wine vinegar and olive oil in a medium mixing bowl until emulsified.
• Fold in the cornichons, capers and eggs.
• Stir in the parsley and tarragon, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.

SHEET PAN LONDON BROIL WITH ASPARAGUS GRIBICHE

Steps:

• For the London broil: Set a large resealable plastic bag in a medium saucepan and pull the edges of the bag over the sides of the pan for easy access to the bag. Add the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, garlic cloves, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the bag and whisk to combine. Add the London broil and seal the bag tightly. Remove the bag from the pan and use your hands to rotate the meat, coating thoroughly in the marinade. Lay the bag flat on a cutting board and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, flipping the bag after 30 minutes. (The seasoned meat can also be stored in the refrigerator overnight. Let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.)
• For the gribiche: Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan filled with water to a boil over high heat. Use a large spoon to gently add the eggs. Boil for 10 minutes. Drain the eggs and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Crack, peel and roughly chop the eggs.
• Whisk the oil, mustard, vinegar, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the parsley, chives, capers and cornichons. Fold in the chopped eggs. Cover and set aside to marinate. (The gribiche can be refrigerated for up to 2 days; return to room temperature before using.)
• While the gribiche is marinating, position an oven rack about 4 inches from the heating element and preheat the broiler to high. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place in the oven to preheat.
• Remove the steak from the bag and discard any stuck-on garlic cloves. Pull the preheated sheet pan from the oven and place the steak in the center. Broil until nicely charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the center of the steak registers between 120 and 125 degrees F, 6 to 10 minutes depending on thickness. Transfer the steak to the cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
• For the asparagus: While the steak rests, add the asparagus to the same sheet pan and toss with the olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Broil until the asparagus is vibrantly green and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes.
• Divide the asparagus among plates and spoon the gribiche over the top. Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain and divide among the plates.

POTATO AND ASPARAGUS PIZZA WITH SAUCE GRIBICHE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 200C fan-forced (220C conventional). Place pizza bases on two large baking trays lined with baking paper. 2. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange over the pizza bases. Top with asparagus and bake for 20 minutes or until potatoes are golden and cooked through. 3. Meanwhile, cook the eggs in boiling water for 8 minutes, drain and refresh in iced water. Peel and roughly chop. Place in a small bowl, add cornichons, mustard, lemon juice, remaining olive oil and chopped tarragon. Season with salt and pepper and gently toss to combine. 4. Top the pizza with sauce gribiche and extra tarragon and serve.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS GRIBICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium. Brush the asparagus with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. Remove from the grill and place on a serving platter.
• Place the cooked egg yolks, tarragon, capers, cornichons, salt, and pepper in the work bowl of a food processor and pulse until just combined. With the processor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified. Add enough white wine vinegar to make the sauce thin enough to drizzle. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if necessary. Drizzle the sauce over the asparagus and serve immediately.

PIZZA WITH ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast and sugar in water and set aside to proof for about five minutes. Pour yeast mixture into a bowl, add salt, olive oil, pepper and two cups of flour. Mix well. Add some of the remaining flour, in two or three portions, until the dough begins to leave the sides of the bowl. You should have some flour left.
• Dust a work surface with some of the remaining flour and turn the dough out onto it. Knead until it is very smooth and elastic, kneading in additional flour as necessary.
• Place the dough in a large lightly oiled bowl. Turn the dough to oil the top, cover loosely and allow to rise until doubled, about 1 hour at room temperature. Punch the dough down.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees and place oven rack in the lowest position. Dust a lightly oiled baking sheet or pizza stone with cornmeal.
• Divide the dough into four portions and roll or stretch each to form an eight-inch circle, leaving a thicker border.
• Snap off the bottom ends of the asparagus and peel the bottom half of each. Slice each asparagus in half lengthwise, then cut each piece in half.
• Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the circles of dough, then arrange the asparagus pieces, cut side down, in a pattern on each. Sprinkle with Fontina and Gorgonzola.
• Bake pizzas about 15 minutes, until the crust is lightly browned and the cheese is bubbling. Serve at once.

ASPARAGUS WITH SAUCE GRIBICHE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; prepare an ice water bath.
• Cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 4 to 5 minutes depending on size; plunge into water bath, then pat dry with paper towels.
• Asparagus can also be pan fried, just until the tips are golden, instead of blanching.
• Coarsely chop the egg whites and set aside; push the yolks through a sieve into a medium sized bowl.
• Separate the egg and place the yolk into a large bowl; reserve the white for another use.
• Whisk mustard and vinegar into the egg yolk; season with salt and pepper.
• Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified and thickened.
• Fold in capers, cornichons, herbs, egg whites, and egg yolks; taste and season again with salt and pepper, if needed.
• Arrange asparagus on a serving platter, or individual plates; top with several dollops of the sauce and garnish with parsley or chervil sprigs.
• NOTE: If substituting with mayonnaise, use about 1/2 cup of that (or more to taste) and leave out the egg entirely. Use mustard and vinegar to taste as well as the salt and pepper. Leave out the oil.

ASPARAGUS, FINGERLING POTATO, AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Place potatoes in small saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Sprinkle with salt. Bring to boil and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain. Cool. Cut potatoes into thin slices.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle rimless baking sheet with cornmeal. Roll and stretch pizza dough to 16x11-inch oval. Transfer to baking sheet. Mix 1 tablespoon olive oil and garlic in small bowl. Brush garlic oil over dough. Sprinkle 3/4 of green onions over, then mozzarella, leaving 1/2-inch plain border. Top with potato slices and goat cheese. Toss asparagus and 1 tablespoon oil in medium bowl. Scatter asparagus over pizza. Sprinkle with Parmesan, then lightly with salt and generously with pepper.
• Bake pizza until crust is browned and asparagus is tender, about 18 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Sprinkle with remaining green onions. Cut into pieces.

SAUCE GRIBICHE

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix all ingredients except parsley. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking. When ready to serve, mix in parsley. Serve with cold meat like leftover leg of lamb or roast chicken; also good on roast vegetables like carrots and turnips, or good-quality cold cuts like rare roast beef or turkey breast.
