TORRISI'S SPICY SAUCE



Torrisi's Spicy Sauce image

This sauce is the invention of Rich Torrisi and Mario Carbone, of Torrisi Italian Specialties in NYC, and is all over the food blogs (Pinterest, Food52 just to name a few). What drew my attention is that Food52 mentioned jarring it and giving as gifts... What a fab idea! I didn't realize I'd fall in love myself and have to triple the recipe! It's a creamy, spicy, heavenly spread that lends itself to a million things - roasted meats and chicken, eggs in any form (fried, scrambled, fritatta), tossed with grilled shrimp to top a salad (or for an appetizer), stirred into cooked greens or a soups - stews - beans. Serve as a dip with toasted pita or a rustic corn chip, or even use as a sandwich spread. The uses are endless, and delicious. This sauce will keep up to 6 months in the fridge, if it lasts that long.... Enjoy!

Time 5m

Yield 2 cups, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 ounces pickled peppers
2 ounces roasted red peppers
1 ounce tomato paste (or 2 oz. crushed tomato for a looser, thinner version of the sauce)
1/4 cup olive oil (extra-virgin is always best)
1/4 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon sugar (I prefer brown, but white is fine too)
salt (please taste the sauce first, many pickled peppers are plenty salty!)
1 tablespoon garlic, minced (not in the original recipe, but I love the extra dimension it adds)

Steps:

  • When it comes to the pickled peppers, B and G hot cherry peppers are suggested by Torrisi, although the pickled jalapenos from the grocery store would be great too. Throw in a chipotle pepper for a smoky version of the sauce. Play with it!
  • Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender, and mix until desired texture is reached. Torrisi's makes it "slightly smooth" -- I like mine pureed quite finely.
  • If jarring for edible gifts, I like to use the jam jars that allow you to insert a small square of fabric (I like using red-checked gingham, since it looks so Italian) and a tag with the recipe or a list of sauce uses.

TORRISI TURKEY



Torrisi Turkey image

The roast turkey breast that Rich Torrisi and Mario Carbone serve for lunch at their restaurant Parm in New York City is about the moistest, most luxuriously flavorful turkey available on the planet: rich and buttery, deep with rich turkey taste. They wrap a brined breast in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and place it in an intensely humid low-temperature oven that leaves the meat dense with moisture, heavy with flavor. Then they paint a glaze of honey and roasted garlic on the meat and place it in a hot, dry oven to create a crust. The result is turkey that tastes emphatically of turkey. And you can do it at home.

Time 4h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup kosher salt
1 cup sugar
2 boneless turkey breasts, 3 to 4 1/2 pounds each
8 heads garlic, lightly smashed but intact
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1 tablespoon thyme leaves

Steps:

  • To brine the turkey: In a medium saucepan, bring 2 quarts water to a boil with the salt and sugar. Pour into a large pot, and add 2 quarts cold water. Once the brine is cool, submerge the turkey breasts and refrigerate overnight, or up to 24 hours.
  • To make the glaze: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Toss the garlic heads with the olive oil in a small casserole dish, cover and roast until the garlic is soft, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Leave covered until cool enough to handle, then squeeze the garlic cloves from their skins into a food processor and purée. Add the honey, salt and pepper. Cover until ready to use.
  • To cook the turkey: Heat oven to 250 degrees. Remove the breasts from the brine and wrap each one four times in plastic wrap and once in aluminum foil. Insert an oven-safe thermometer into the center of one breast and place both on a wire rack in a roasting pan. Add water to reach to just below the rack. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees, 2 to 3 hours. Near the end of cooking time, fill a large bowl halfway with ice water.
  • Remove the turkey from oven and raise temperature to 425 degrees. Without removing thermometer or wrapping, submerge the turkey in the ice bath for 5 minutes. Remove foil, plastic wrap and turkey skin. Pat dry and brush glaze liberally on all sides of the breasts. Roast until glaze is golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh thyme and serve thinly sliced, hot or cold.

Tips:

  • Use stale bread: Stale bread is less likely to fall apart when soaked in the egg mixture, resulting in a crispier torrija. Torrijas are a great way to use up leftover bread.
  • Soak the bread thoroughly: The bread should be soaked in the egg mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will ensure that the bread is evenly coated and cooked through.
  • Use a shallow frying pan: A shallow frying pan will help to evenly cook the torrijas and prevent them from getting too brown on the outside while remaining uncooked on the inside.
  • Fry the torrijas in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the torrijas. This will prevent them from sticking together and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Drain the torrijas on paper towels: After frying, drain the torrijas on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the torrijas warm or at room temperature: Torrijas can be served warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed on their own or topped with your favorite toppings, such as cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar, honey, whipped cream, or ice cream.

Conclusion:

Torrijas are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that are perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover bread and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying treat that the whole family will enjoy.
