Portobello

Categories     Sandwich     Cheese     Mushroom     Pepper     Marinate     Quick & Easy     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

For marinade
5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
6 large garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves or 2 teaspoons dried thyme, crumbled
1/2 cup olive oil
1 1/2 pounds fresh Portobello mushrooms, stems trimmed flush with caps
For Gorgonzola butter
2 ounces Gorgonzola cheese (about 1/4 cup) at room temperature
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
For red pepper vinaigrette
1 red bell pepper, roasted (procedure follows), or 1/3 cup chopped drained bottled roasted red peppers
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
four 1/2-inch-thick slices crusty bread, cut diagonally from a large loaf
Garnish: fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Make marinade:
  • In a small bowl whisk together marinade ingredients. Put half of mushroom caps and half of marinade in each of 2 large sealable plastic bags, arranging mushroom caps in one layer, and seal bags, pressing out excess air. Marinate mushrooms at room temperature, turning bags over several times, at least 1 and up to 2 hours.
  • Make Gorgonzola butter while mushrooms are marinating:
  • On a plate with a fork mash Gorgonzola and butter together until blended well.
  • Make red pepper vinaigrette:
  • In a blender blend vinaigrette ingredients with salt and pepper to taste until smooth and emulsified.
  • Prepare grill.
  • Grill one side of bread on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until golden, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, bread may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Divide bread, toasted sides down, among 4 plates. Spread soft side of bread with Gorgonzola butter.
  • Remove mushrooms from marinade and grill 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until tender. (Alternatively, mushrooms may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer mushrooms with tongs to a cutting board and slice thin.
  • Arrange warm mushrooms on toasts and spoon vinaigrette over each open-faced sandwich. Garnish sandwiches with thyme.
  • To roast peppers:
  • Using a long-handled fork char peppers over an open flame, turning, until skins are blackened, 2 to 3 minutes. (Or broil peppers on rack of a broiler pan under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from heat, turning every 5 minutes, until skins are blistered and charred, 15 to 25 minutes.) Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle. Keeping peppers whole, peel them, starting at blossom end. Cut off tops and discard seeds and ribs. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)

Categories     Vegetables

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4-6 ears fresh corn
1/4 c chopped onion
2 clove garlic, chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 c roasted red pepper (drained jarred pimentos or red bell peppers you have roasted yourself)
2 Tbsp melted butter
1/2 tsp sweet paprika or smoked paprika
3-4 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley or chopped fresh cilantro or mixed

Steps:

  • 1. Saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil with the dried herbs until the onions are tender.
  • 2. Puree the onion mixture with the roasted red bell peppers, salt and black pepper until smooth then stream in the melted butter and add paprika.
  • 3. Shuck corn and grill until tender or cook by another method of your choice.
  • 4. Brush cooked corn with red pepper butter and garnish with chopped fresh herbs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: The type of red peppers you use will affect the flavor of the butter. For a milder butter, use sweet red peppers. For a more intense flavor, use roasted red peppers or smoked paprika.
  • Roast the peppers: Roasting the peppers brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on a grill. If you're using a grill, be sure to char the peppers slightly for a smoky flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a bright, herbaceous flavor to the butter. Some good options include basil, thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
  • Don't overcook the butter: The butter should be cooked just until it is melted and the ingredients are combined. Overcooking the butter will make it grainy.
  • Use the butter immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use: Red pepper butter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. When you're ready to use it, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Red pepper butter is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for spreading on sandwiches, crackers, or toast. It can also be used as a marinade for chicken, fish, or vegetables. Or, you can add it to sauces, soups, and stews for a pop of flavor. With its delicious flavor and vibrant color, red pepper butter is sure to become a staple in your kitchen.
