Roasted Shallot Vinaigrette Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place garlic and shallot on a piece of parchment paper-lined foil, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Wrap package to enclose, and roast until garlic and shallot are very soft, about 45 minutes. Set aside to cool. Remove garlic from each clove, and peel shallot.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine roasted garlic and shallot, balsamic vinegar, mustard, and lemon juice. With machine running, drizzle in oil; process until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir in the shallots. Gradually whisk in the oil to make a smooth dressing. Use immediately or store covered, in the refrigerator, for up to a week.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400^F.
• In a medium glass baking dish combine the shallots, garlic and 1/2 cup olive oil.
• Stir to coat evenly.
• Cover and bake until tender and golden, about 40 minutes, stirring now and then.
• Drain shallots and garlic and place in a blender or food processor.
• Reserve oil.
• Puree shallots and garlic and transfer to a heavy medium skillet.
• Add remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, stirring to combine.
• Over medium heat, continue stirring until brown, about 3 minutes.
• Return to processor and add remaining ingredients, including the reserved oil.
• Process until well blended.
• Season to taste.
• Can be made ahead and refrigerated.
• Bring to room temperature before using.

Steps:

• In a medium stainless steel saucepan reduce the wine to 1/4 cup. Place the syrup in a blender and add the vinegar, mustard, and honey and blend until combined. With the motor running slowly add the olive oil and blend until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste. In a large bowl, combine the garlic, olive oil, rosemary and lamb and marinate for 4 to 6 hours in the refrigerator. Prepare the grill. Thread the lamb cubes, chorizo and roasted shallots on the skewers and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness. Arrange on platter and drizzle with vinaigrette.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together shallot, vinegar, mustard, and honey. Slowly whisk in oil until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, if desired.

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: lightly brush or spray the shallot all over with a bit of olive oil; grill over direct medium heat until it is blackened in spots and very soft throughout, about 15 minutes, turning once.
• Remove the shallot from the grill, and let cool; remove and discard the peel.
• Finely chop the shallot and put it in a medium bowl along with the remaining vinaigrette ingredients; whisk in the rest of the olive oil to create a smooth dressing.
• Trim any excess fat from the lamb; let stand at room temperature 20-30 minutes before grilling.
• Lightly brush or spray the lamb with oil and season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
• Loosely cover the bones with foil to keep them from burning.
• Sear bone side down first, over direct medium heat until lightly browned, 2-4 minutes, turning once (flare ups might occur); move the lamb over indirect medium heat and grill to desired doneness, about 15 minutes more for medium-rare.
• Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into chops.
• Serve warm with the vinaigrette.

Steps:

• Whisk shallots, rice vinegar and Dijon mustard in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in oil. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, shallots, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a jar with a lid. Shake until well combined.

Steps:

• Method
• To prepare the vinaigrette: Place the shallots and 3/4 cup of the olive oil in a small ovenproof pan and cover tightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the shallots are soft. Let the shallots cool in the olive oil, and then remove, reserving the oil. Julienne the shallots and put them in a bowl. Add the balsamic vinegar and slowly whisk in the reserved olive oil. Add the chopped chives and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To prepare the polenta: Cook the garlic in 3 tablespoons of butter for 1 minute. Fold into the polenta and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread the polenta into a 1/2-inch thick layer on a small sheet pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours. Cut the polenta into four 3-inch discs and sauté in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a hot, nonstick pan for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Blot on paper towels.
• To prepare the steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper and rub with 1/4 cup olive oil. Remove the thyme leaves from the stems and rub them onto the beef. Grill for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until medium-rare.
• Assembly
• Place a piece of the polenta in the center of each plate and top with a piece of the steak. Spoon the Roasted Shallot Vinaigrette over the steak and around the plates and top with freshly ground black pepper.
• Wine Notes
• The warm garlic flavors in the polenta mesh beautifully with Italian varietals. The rich fruit of Barbera d'Alba from a producer like Giacomo Conterno beautifully balances the garlic, and has the full acidity needed for the shallot vinaigrette.

Steps:

• In a container with a tight lid, preferably a glass jar, combine shallot, vinegar and mustard. Close tightly and shake well to mix. Add salt and pepper, and shake again.
• Add olive oil 1/3 cup at a time, shaking very well after each addition, until smooth and emulsified (you may want to wrap a kitchen towel around the container, just in case). Taste and add more olive oil, 1/4 cup at a time, if dressing is too tart.
• Use immediately or refrigerate up to 3 weeks. The chilled olive oil will form a lump, so remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before using to allow it to liquefy. Shake well before serving to re-emulsify.
