Fiery Summer Bruschetta W Zesty Olive Spread Spicy Candie Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until the flavors are blended. Remove from the heat; cool.

Steps:

• For the bacon -Preheat oven to 450. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place a baking rack over the paper lined tray and arrange bacon slices across the rack - do not overlap. In small bowl combine the syrup and cayenne. With pastry brush, brush the bacon generously with the mixture. Place in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until done. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the Summer Salad - In bowl, add the vinegar, honey, Dijon and lime juice and zest. Whisk to combine. While whisking, slowly drizzle the olive oil to make a dressing. Add remaining ingredients to bowl and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside until ready to use.
• For the bruschetta - In large sauté pan, add the olive oil, cayenne and garlic. When garlic has browned, remove and discard. Add the bread slices and cook until browned. You may need to add more olive oil to pan if the bread soaks up too much. Flip the bread and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking on this side until it is browned. Remove to tray and set aside until ready to plate the dish.
• For the Zesty Olive Spread - in food processor, place all ingredients. Pulse until all ingredients are pureed. Check for seasoning and set aside until ready to use.
• Assembly - Place two pieces bread on each plate. Spread the zesty olive spread ontop of the bread. Lay two pieces candied bacon ontop of the spread. Top with the summer salad.

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 1/2 teaspoons gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) and spread on a plate. Coat one 12-ounce package thick-cut bacon in the sugar mixture, pressing each slice on both sides to adhere.
• Lay the bacon on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 325˚ F, rotating the pan and flipping the bacon halfway through, until the bacon is dark brown and caramelized, 30 to 40 minutes. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds on both sides, then let cool completely to harden.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly oil a pizza stone or a baking sheet.
• Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Saute onion in the hot oil until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add rosemary, pepper, and salt.
• Transfer onion mixture carefully to an electric blender, add water, and puree gently. Spread puree on prepared crust. Top with Brie cheese, raspberries, and peach slices.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly, 6 to 8 minutes. Top with fresh basil.
