ANCHOVY-GARLIC DRESSING



Anchovy-Garlic Dressing image

Tasting this bold dressing on its own, straight out of the jar, might make your eyes widen. It is very assertive. But don't tone it down thinking there must be an error. The high ratio of potent raw garlic to bright lemon juice to salty anchovy is very much on purpose - once you spoon the dressing over cold braised celery hearts or fennel heads or steamed cauliflower or leafy mustard greens, the ferocity is tamed. If it didn't start so high and assertive, it would become docile rather than perfectly obedient.

ANCHOVY GARLIC SPREAD

A change from garlic toast. You need to at least "like" anchovies for this one! Serving size depends on how thick or thin you spread the mixture on each slice of bread.

Categories     Spreads

Time 8m

Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 can flat anchovy
2 tablespoons olive oil
10 -12 cloves garlic
mozzarella cheese (shredded)

Steps:

  • Saute' garlic in oil (do not brown).
  • Add anchovies and cook/saute for a few minutes.
  • Put mixture in blender or food processor and puree.
  • Spread onto sliced French, Sour Dough or Italian bread.
  • Cover each slice with desired amount of cheese.
  • Place under broiler until the cheese becomes bubbly.
  • Note: if you are not terribly fond of anchovies (very salty fish) I would put on a thinner spread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. A sturdy bread like a baguette or sourdough will hold up well to the toppings.
  • Be generous with the anchovies and garlic. They're the stars of the show!
  • Broil the toast until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread is golden brown.
  • Serve the toast immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.
