Potato And Goat Cheese Terrine Rossini Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the potatoes, garlic and 1 tablespoon salt in a large pot with enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, until very tender.
• Drain the potatoes and garlic and process them together through a food mill fitted with the coarsest blade set on top of a bowl. While the potatoes are still hot, stir in the goat cheese, butter, sour cream, half-and-half, 4 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper until smooth.
• Pour the mixture into a 9-by-12-by-2-inch oval baking dish, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish with the butter.
• Make a layer of overlapping potato slices on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with half of the garlic and 1/3 of the goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, the remaining garlic, another 1/3 of the cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Finish with a final layer of potatoes and the remaining cheese and season with salt and pepper. Pour the heavy cream over the top of the potatoes and, using your hands, press to condense the layers slightly. Make sure the potatoes are all covered with cream.
• Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the gratin is bubbly and golden brown on top and the potatoes are cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Arrange the eggplant slices in one layer on baking sheets, brush both sides of the eggplant with the oil, and sprinkle them with salt to taste. Broil the eggplant in batches about 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until it is golden and tender, and transfer it with a metal spatula to paper towels to drain.
• Line a loaf pan, 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches, with plastic wrap, leaving a 3-inch overhang, and in it arrange the eggplant, the olive paste, the bell peppers, and the goat cheese in several layers, beginning and ending with the eggplant. Cover the eggplant with the plastic overhang, weight the terrine with a 3-to-4-pound weight (such as a loaf pan filled with canned goods), and chill it for 24 hours. (The terrine may be made 3 days in advance).
• Remove the weight, invert the terrine onto a cutting board, and discard the plastic wrap. Cut four 3/4-inch-thick slices from the terrine, pour about 2 tablespoons of the parsley sauce onto the center of each of 4 plates, tilting the plates to spread the sauce, and arrange a slice of the terrine on each plate. Garnish each serving with a parsley spring.
• To roast peppers:
• Using a long-handled fork char the peppers over an open flame, turning them, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the skins are blackened. (Or broil the peppers on the rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from the heat, turning them every 5 minutes, for 15 to 25 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and charred.) Transfer the peppers to a bowl and let them steam, covered until they are cool enough to handle. Keeping the peppers whole, peel them starting at the blossom end, cut off the tops, and discard the seeds and ribs. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)
• Parsley sauce:
• In a blender purée the parsley and the garlic with the vinegar, the water, the oil, and salt and pepper to taste until the sauce is smooth and strain it through a fine sieve set over a small bowl, pressing hard on the solids. Makes about 1/2 cup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Generously butter 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Whisk first 7 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Arrange 1/3 of potatoes in bottom of prepared dish, overlapping slightly and covering completely. Pour 1/3 of cream mixture over. Repeat layering potatoes and cream mixture 2 more times. Bake uncovered until potatoes are tender and top is golden brown in spots, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Arrange eggplant, celery root and potato separately in single layer on 3 nonstick baking sheets. Brush both sides of vegetables with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Working in batches, bake until vegetables are tender, and celery root and potato are pale golden, about 6 minutes for eggplant, 10 minutes for celery root, and 14 minutes for potato. Transfer vegetables to separate small bowls. Cool completely.
• Char red bell peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag; let stand 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers. Quarter peppers lengthwise.
• Place 12x12-inch foil sheet on work surface. Arrange half of potato slices over foil, forming 9x9-inch square. Arrange half of celery root slices over potato slices. Arrange half of eggplant slices over celery root slices. Arrange basil leaves over eggplant. Repeat layering with goat cheese, mozzarella. and red peppers. Press firmly to compress layers. Repeat layering with remaining eggplant, celery root, then potato slices.
• Using foil as aid, carefully roll up terrine as for jelly roll. Wrap terrine in additional foil. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Refrigerate.)
• Freeze terrine until firm on edges but not frozen through, about 2 hours. Slice terrine into eight 1-inch-thick slices (do not remove foil). Transfer slices to baking sheet and freeze 10 minutes.
• Lightly coat cut sides of terrine slices with flour. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add slices and cook until vegetables are heated through and cheese begins to melt, about 2 minutes per side. Remove foil from slices. Arrange slices on plates and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap beets in heavy foil. Roast until easily pierced with a knife, about 2 hours. Cool, then rub off skins with paper towel.
• Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice beets as thin as possible. Line an 11-by-3 1/2-by-3-inch terrine with plastic wrap. Line bottom and sides with beet slices, overlapping slightly.
• Melt goat cheese in double boiler or bowl set over simmering water. Transfer to food processor, and add thyme, rosemary, truffle oil and salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth.
• Place goat cheese in a pastry bag without a tip (or use two large spoons), and pipe into mold. Smooth mixture, and top with layer of beet slices. Press gently on top to flatten and compress. Trim any slices that extend above top, to make neat edge. Cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, up to two days.
• To serve, invert chilled terrine onto a plate and remove plastic wrap. Cut terrine into 16 slices, and allow to come to room temperature. Place two slices on each of eight serving plates, accompanied by a mache salad if desired.

Steps:

• Make the dressing. Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, and garlic. Whisk in the olive oil or the yogurt and olive oil. Taste and adjust seasonings, Set aside.
• Scrub the potatoes and cut into 3/4-inch dice if large. If using fingerlings cut in 3/4 inch slices. Steam above 1 inch of boiling water until tender but not mushy, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and toss while hot in a bowl with salt and pepper to taste, the onions, parsley, goat cheese, and the dressing. Sprinkle the sage over the top and serve.
