Rosemary And Olive Oil Recipe By Tasty Food

ROSEMARY AND OLIVE OIL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, pepper, and rosemary.
• Add the olive oil and mix thoroughly with a fork.
• Add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and mix thoroughly, until small clumps form and the dough holds together when squeezed.
• Form the dough into a round, flattening the top and bottom as evenly as possible.
• Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper and add another piece of parchment on top. Roll out the dough as evenly as possible, to between ¼- and ⅛-inch (6- and 3-mm) thick.
• Remove the top layer of parchment paper and place on a baking sheet. You may need to press the edges of the dough to form an even rectangle.
• Using a cookie cutter or pizza cutter, slice the dough to desired size. If using a cookie cutter, re-roll the excess dough and cut out more crackers.
• If desired, use the blunt end of a skewer to poke holes in each of the crackers.
• Carefully place the crackers on the baking sheet. If the dough is too warm, the crackers will break as you attempt to transfer them. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes before proceeding if this happens.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
• Let the crackers cool completely and serve as desired. Store up to 1 week at room temperature in an airtight container.
• Enjoy!

FRESH HERB INFUSED ROSEMARY OIL

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Use a heavy pot that heats evenly. Avoid aluminum and non-enameled cast iron. Place the rosemary in the pot and pour the oil over it.
• Heat over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes. You want the oil to warm but not simmer.
• Turn off the heat and let the rosemary infuse in the oil for 1 hour.
• Strain into a clean, dry glass bottle or jar (it is not necessary to sterilize the bottle or jar for this recipe). Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator, for up to 10 days.
• Place the fresh rosemary in your slow cooker and cover with the oil. Cook on the high setting uncovered for 1 hour.
• Turn off the slow cooker and let the oil cool to room temperature.
• Strain into a clean, dry glass bottle or jar (it is not necessary to sterilize the bottle or jar).
• Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator, for up to 10 days.
• Enjoy.

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL BREAD

Steps:

• Combine the flour, yeast, and salt in a food processor. Turn on the machine and add the olive oil through the feed tube, followed by 3/4 cup water. Process for about 30 seconds, adding more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture forms a ball and is slightly sticky to the touch.
• Turn the dough onto a floured work surface and, by hand, knead in the rosemary until the dough feels smooth. Put it in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until the dough doubles in size, about 2 hours. (You can cut this rising time as short as 1 hour if you are in a hurry, or you can let the dough rise more slowly, in the refrigerator, for up to 8 hours. At this point, you may also wrap the dough tightly in plastic and freeze for up to a month; defrost in a covered bowl in the refrigerator or at room temperature.)
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Shape the dough into a boule, sprinkling with flour as necessary but keeping it to a minimum. Line a colander or large bowl with a well-floured kitchen towel, set the loaf in the bowl, and cover with another towel (this keeps it from spreading too much). Let the dough rise for at least an hour and preferably longer, up to 2 hours.
• About 45 minutes before the dough has risen, heat the oven to 425°F. Put an ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) on the floor or the lowest rack while the oven heats. If you're using a baking stone, put it on the rack above the skillet while the oven heats; if not, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Once you're ready to bake, slide or turn the dough out onto a lightly floured peel or flexible cutting board, seam side down, or just transfer it to the prepared baking sheet. Rub the loaf with a little flour (this helps prevent scorching) and slash the top with a sharp knife or razor blade. Use the peel or cutting board to slide the loaf onto the baking stone or slide the baking sheet into the oven. Partially pull out the rack with the heated skillet and very carefully pour 1 cup hot water into the skillet (it will create a lot of steam). Slide the rack back in and immediately close the oven door
• Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, turning the bread or the baking sheet halfway through, until the crust is golden brown, the bottom sounds hollow when tapped, and the internal temperature reaches 200°F on a quick-read thermometer. If the bread is browning too quickly, lower the temperature to 400°F. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
• Variations:
• Rosemary Olive Oil Bread With Olives or Tomatoes: In Step 2, knead 1 cup halved pitted oil-cured olives, roughly chopped dried tomatoes, or a combination into the dough along with the rosemary.
• Olive Oil Bread With Onions and Mint: A nice combo; you can make this with olives too (see the preceding variation), but omit the rosemary. In Step 2, knead 1 large onion, chopped, into the dough in place of or along with the olives. Add 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint if you like.
• Pancetta and Black Pepper Bread: Rich, savory, and packed with flavor: You can use olive oil here if you'd rather not use the pancetta pan drippings: Omit the rosemary. Chop 1 pound pancetta (or bacon) and cook until it's crisp. Drain the meat and set it aside, reserving 1/3 cup of the rendered fat. If you don't have enough, add olive oil or good-quality lard to make up the balance. Proceed with the recipe, using the reserved fat in place of the oil. In Step 2, knead in the pancetta pieces and 2 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper.

ROSEMARY-INFUSED OIL

Steps:

• Cook 1 cup olive oil with 5 or 6 rosemary sprigs in a small saucepan over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature. Transfer the sprigs to a bottle or cruet, then add the oil and seal. Refrigerate up to 1 month.

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL BREAD

Steps:

• Add dry ingredients; salt, Italian seasoning, ground black pepper, dried rosemary, bread flour, granulated sugar and active dry yeast, to a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook and combine. Warm water to 100-130°F. (30 seconds in the microwave works perfectly) Create a well in the dry ingredients and add oil and warm water. Mix dough until it cleans the sides of the bowl. Allow dough to knead on the hook in the bowl for 1-2 minutes. (If using your hands just kneed until it comes away from the counter top and is no longer sticking to your hands- it should feel a little elastic) Coat a clean bowl with olive oil. Add dough to bowl, turn to coat, and allow to rise in covered bowl for 1 hour. Shape dough into square or round loaf (your choice). Brush top of dough with oil and top with sea salt or any other seasonings you like. Heat oven to 375°F and bake for 30 minutes.

ROSEMARY OIL

Steps:

• Shake off excess dirt from rosemary.
• No water on herbs!
• Put rosemary into a 2 cup (1 pint) bottle.
• Cover with 2 cups of olive oil and seal.
• Keep refrigerated.
• Strain and put into a pretty bottle.
• Use for salads and cooking, dipping fresh crusty bread into.
• Or use in place of where you would use olive oil.
• Health Update: Homemade Flavored Oil Alert.
• If you like to make your own herb/garlic flavored oil mixtures, be aware of possible dangers if you do not use the latest safety recommendations. Commercially prepared concoctions contain additives like phosphoric acid or citric acid that prevent bacteria from growing. If you make flavored oils at home, keep them refrigerated and toss after 3 days.
• Herbs and oils are both low-acid (pH
• Avoid making flavored oil that is potentially dangerous. Ideal conditions for the unwanted growth of Celsius botulinum include low acid environment (usually pH>4.6), anaerobic (oil provides an anaerobic environment), with enough available water and room temperatures.
• These bacteria are found very commonly in soil, water and air. Surrounding these low-acid foods with oil creates an oxygen-free environment (anaerobic) that is perfect for the growth of the bacteria and formation of its toxin (poison). The safe and recommended method for making flavored oil follows:.
• Herb Flavored Oil - Cold Infusion Method.
• Choose very fresh herbs and a high quality oil with a neutral or mild taste. A typical recipe calls for one cup fresh herbs. Use your favorite herb or herb combination. Use a mild herb with a strong flavor for best results (rosemary and thyme) or use a single herb.
• 1-2 cups green herbs.
• 1 cup oil (olive oil, walnut oil, etc.).
• In a large 5 quart Dutch oven or blanching pot, bring 2 quarts water to a rolling boil.
• Add herbs and push under boiling water with a long handled spoon.
• Return water to a boil and blanch herbs, covered, for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare an ice water bath. After 5 minutes, remove herbs from boiling water using a strainer or slotted spoon. Drain slightly.
• Immediately plunge herbs into ice water for 5 minutes. Drain well and squeeze out all excess water.
• Place herbs in a blender and add oil. Puree until smooth.
• Strain immediately through a fine-mesh strainer. Strain again through several layers of cheesecloth.
• Pour strained oil into a pre-sterilized glass bottle. Cover tightly and refrigerate; use within 3 days.

CHICKEN BREASTS IN FOIL WITH ROSEMARY AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Tear off two sheets of aluminum foil, each about 18 inches square, and place one on top of the other. Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to smear a patch in the center of the foil, large enough to hold the chicken side by side. Make a bed of the spinach in the center, then top with the chicken breasts, salt and pepper to taste the rosemary sprigs and leaves, and another tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle the lemon zest and juice over the chicken.
• Fold the foil over the chicken onto itself and crimp the edges as tightly as possible by making 1- or 2-inch folds, one after the other, each sealing the other. Seal the package very tightly, but leave plenty of room around the chicken. (You can prepare the recipe up to 3 hours in advance to this point; refrigerate the package.)
• Place a skillet large enough to hold the package over high heat. A minute later, add the remaining oil, then pour out all but a film. Put the package in the skillet; it will sizzle. About 2 minutes later, the package will expand like a balloon; be careful of the escaping steam. Cook for 5 minutes longer from that point.
• Remove the package from the heat, again taking care to avoid any escaping steam. Let rest for 1 minute, then cut a slit down the length of the top with a knife. Use a knife and fork to open up the package, then spoon the chicken, spinach, and juices onto a plate and serve.
