Bagna Cauda With Broccoflower And Toasted Country Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small saute pan over medium-low heat. Add garlic, and cook until softened but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Add anchovies and oil, and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is softened and lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool slightly.
• Transfer the mixture to the jar of a blender, and add milk; puree until thick and smooth, about 2 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container, and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve, preferably overnight and up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Put the oil in a pan with the garlic and anchovies and cook over low heat, stirring, until you have a melted, muddy mess. Everything should begin to meld together. Whisk in 6 tablespoons of butter, and as soon as it has melted, remove from the heat and give a few more beats of your whisk so that everything is creamy and amalgamated. Taste, and if you feel you want this as a dipping sauce - which is meant to be pungent but not acrid. If you want the sauce a little more mellow, whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Pour into a dish that, ideally, fits over a flame so that it does not get cold at the table.
• Dip in the crudites and eat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare an ice bath; set aside. Fill a stockpot with 1 inch water, and bring to a boil. Place broccoflower in a steamer insert; sprinkle with salt. Cover tightly, and steam until just tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 10 minutes. Transfer to ice bath; drain, and pat dry.
• Arrange bread on a baking sheet; toast until edges are brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Turn; toast until the edges of the other side are brown, about 3 minutes. Serve with bagna cauda and broccoflower.

Steps:

• In a hot pan, pour a good amount of olive oil in. When the oil starts to warm up, add garlic and turn the flame down.
• Add the anchovies, if using (don't worry about mincing them as they will dissolve in the mixture). The anchovies should cook in the garlic oil until the garlic becomes brown and the anchovies dissolve.
• When the garlic gets light brown, about 5 minutes, add chili flakes until they toast up and then turn flame off. Add more olive oil and salt and pepper for flavor.
• Right before you heat the sauce in your fondue pot, add some minced parsley to cook in the sauce.

Steps:

• In a small sauté pan, heat olive oil, garlic, lemon and anchovies over a very low flame until mixture just begins to bubble, about 2 minutes. Add capers and parsley, stir and simmer a minute longer. Anchovies will break up. Add salt and pepper to taste. Turn off flame, and serve in pan as a dip for julienned vegetables and cubes of a Tuscan-style loaf or a baguette.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook until tender. Reduce heat to low. Mix in anchovy filets and heavy cream. Cook and stir until thickened. Remove from heat, cover and chill in the refrigerator approximately 2 hours.
• Return the mixture to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbly. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in an oven casserole, cover and bake at 275F for 1 1/2 hours.
• Serve with bread and/or vegetables.
