ROASTED GARLIC FLAN (ROASTED-GARLIC CUSTARDS WITH MUSHROOMS AND GREEN ONIONS)

Steps:

• To make the mushroom stock: Twist the stem off the mushroom, wipe it with a damp paper towel, and chop it coarsely. Slice off the dark gills from the underside of the cap and reserve the cap. Combine the stem pieces, gills, and stock in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer the stock uncovered for 30 minutes, until reduced to 1-1/2 cups. Set aside. To make the custards: Preheat the oven to 325 F. Place the cream in a saucepan over medium heat with the garlic clove and bring to a boil. Remove the garlic and keep the cream hot. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolk together. Add the cream in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Whisk in the roasted garlic puree until the mixture is smooth and season with salt and pepper. Butter four 6-ounce ramekins. Fill the ramekins with the custard mixture and place them in a shallow roasting pan. Place the pan in the oven and fill the pan with enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until the custards are set and a knife inserted in the middle of each comes out clean. Remove the ramekins from the water bath. Let the custards sit for 5 minutes, then run a knife around the inside of each ramekin. To unmold the custards, place a dinner plate over each ramekin and turn it over quickly; lift off the ramekin. While the custard is baking, prepare the sauce: Slice the reserved portobello mushroom cap and heat the butter and olive oil in a medium saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter foam begins to subside, add the sliced mushroom and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the mushroom with salt and pepper. Add the sliced garlic and green onions to the pan. Saute over medium heat until the garlic is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sherry and boil over high heat until the liquid is reduced by three fourths, about 2 minutes. Add the mushroom stock to the pan along with the broken pasta and thyme. Lower heat and boil gently for 6 to 8 minutes, until the pasta is al dente. To serve: Arrange some mushrooms, garlic, and onions around each unmolded custard. Ladle sauce around the custard and serve. Note: Julienned red and yellow peppers, baby corn, and celery may be added to the sauce with the pasta to make a heartier dish to serve as an entrée.

GARLIC-BUTTER ROASTED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Clean mushrooms with a damp paper towel and gently remove and discard stems.
• Drizzle oil into a large cast iron skillet to evenly coat. Place mushrooms into the skillet, cap-side down. Carefully sprinkle garlic into the mushroom cavities, taking care not to sprinkle directly into the skillet. Drizzle mushrooms with melted butter, then season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and return to the oven for 3 to 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Let cool slightly before serving.

ROASTED GARLIC FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap garlic in foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour. Allow to cool.
• Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees. Cut garlic heads in half, exposing cloves. Squeeze pulp from skins. Place in a food processor and puree until a smooth paste is formed. Add cream, eggs, salt and white pepper. Process again until smooth; do not overprocess, or the cream will thicken.
• Bring a teakettle of water to a boil. Ladle custard into 6 custard cups or ramekins. Place cups in a deep baking pan. Pour boiling water into the pan two-thirds of the way up the sides of the cups.
• Place baking pan in oven. Bake until custard is set, 35 to 40 minutes; do not overcook. Remove cups from the water bath, and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

ROASTED GARLIC AND PORCINI FLAN WITH PORCINI MUSHROOMS AND TOMATO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Crack the eggs on top, and using an egg cutter, slice the tops off the eggs. Carefully pour out the contents of 5 of the eggs into a bowl and separate the yolks from the whites. Transfer the yolks to another bowl. (Use the 5 egg whites and the contents of the remaining 7 eggs for other dishes). You need a total of 12 egg shells for this recipe. Add the cream and roasted garlic to the 5 yolks and whisk thoroughly; season with salt and pepper.
• Carefully rinse out the hollowed eggs under cold running water and return them to the egg carton. Pour the whisked egg mixture into each hollowed egg so that it fills the shell halfway. Place the carton in a roasting pan. Pour enough warm water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the eggs. Cover the pan with foil and put it into the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the custard is firm and does not break when touched with your finger.
• While the eggs are cooking, pour the oil into a heavy skillet and set over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the mushrooms and saute for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and continue to saute until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add the vinegar, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with the chopped parsley.
• Remove the eggs from the oven, and divide the mushroom-tomato mixture between the eggs, spooning it carefully over the custard inside the eggs.
• To serve, arrange the 3 types of peppercorns in the bottom of a serving dish, platter, or basket. Set the filled eggs upright on the peppercorns and serve with demitasse spoons.

GARLIC CUSTARDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degree F.
• Brush a whole garlic head with olive oil. Wrap it in foil and bake for 2 hours. Let garlic cool enough to handle, then cut off the top of the garlic head and squeeze the soft cloves out onto a cutting board. Using the side of a broad knife, mash the cloves slightly. (This may be done up to a week in advance. Refrigerate roasted garlic.)
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Butter 8 (4-ounce) ramekins. Blend the custard ingredients together thoroughly. Pour into the ramekins and place them in a baking pan. Place the pan in the oven and carefully add hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, but you may leave the custards in the water bath to keep warm for up to 20 minutes. You may wish to prepare the Salsa Fresca and the Vinaigrette while the custards bake, and the Herbed Hazelnuts while the custards stay warm after baking.
• To serve, turn the custards out of their ramekins onto plates. Spoon warm Vinaigrette over each one and sprinkle with warm Herbed Hazelnuts.
• Whisk the vinaigrette ingredients together in a small saucepan and heat gently. Set aside to keep warm.
• Melt the butter in a skillet and saute the hazelnuts with their seasonings until the nuts are well coated. Chop coarsely.
• Mix all the ingredients together. For best results, let salsa stand at least half an hour before serving or incorporating into recipe. Use within 24 hours. (The Vinaigrette calls for 1 cup. Enjoy the remaining 2 cups in Tortilla Soup or just with chips.)

ROASTED GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice off the top each head of garlic to expose some of the cloves inside. Place the heads on a piece of foil. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in the foil. Roast until cloves are lightly browned and tender, about 30 minutes.

ROASTED GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cut the top quarter off the top of the garlic bulbs. Place them in a pie pan and drizzle the tops with the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover them with foil and bake until the garlic is roasted and soft, about 45 minutes.

ROASTED GARLIC FLAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F Butter six 4 ounce ramekins.
• Roast the heads of garlic. Squeeze the cloves from the skins and mash into a paste.
• Combine 3-4 tablespoons of the paste in a food processor with eggs, salt, and pepper.
• Pulse until smooth. Add the heavy cream and pulse just until mixed.
• Pour into the ramekins and place the ramekins into a water bath.
• Bake until set and golden brown and knife comes out clean (about 35-45 minutes). Let cool for about 5 minutes.
• Run a knife around the inside edge of each ramekin and turn out onto serving plates.

GARLIC-MUSHROOM FLAN

Steps:

• Put the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally and sprinkling with salt and pepper, until the garlic is fragrant and the mushrooms begin to soften, just 5 minutes or so. Stir the mixture into the stock.
• Beat the eggs lightly and combine with the stock mixture. Put about an inch of water in a baking pan or skillet just large enough to hold four 6-ounce ramekins and turn the heat to high. When the water boils, turn the heat to low, pour the egg mixture into the ramekins, and put the ramekins in the water. Cover tightly with foil and/or a lid.
• Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, then check; the moment the custards are set-they should still be quite jiggly-remove them from the water. Serve hot or at room temperature.

ROASTED GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Arrange heads of garlic on a baking sheet. Sprinkle garlic with olive oil. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour, when the garlic is soft and squeezable, it is ready. Remove, let cool, and serve.

HOW TO ROAST GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cut the top off the garlic bulb, exposing the tops of the garlic cloves. Put on a small square of foil, and rub with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Scrunch up the foil to seal in the bulb.
• Roast for 25-30 mins until soft when pressed, and the papery casing is light golden. Leave to cool for a few minutes before squeezing the soft roasted garlic out of their shells. Alternatively, take off all the papery casing and remove the cloves individually.
