Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup capers, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
4 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Set aside.
  • For the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Form a well in the center and add the eggs, milk and sour cream. Starting from the inside, whisk together the wet ingredients, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients. When almost fully incorporated, drizzle in the butter and whisk until just combined.
  • Scoop enough batter into the waffle iron to fill three-quarters of the way. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons capers and 1 teaspoon chives. Close and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the waffle and divide in pieces along the marked lines. Top with a few slices of smoked salmon, a dollop of the lemon sour cream and some chives. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make more waffles.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 medium zucchini (each 9 ounces), coarsely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
10 ounces baby spinach
1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup finely grated Gruyere
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus sprigs for serving
Vegetable-oil cooking spray
1/4 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
4 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon

Steps:

  • Sprinkle zucchini with 1 teaspoon salt; toss to coat. Transfer to a colander and let stand 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oil and garlic in a medium skillet over medium-high until garlic begins to sizzle. Add spinach and cook, tossing, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Squeeze zucchini dry in a large potato ricer or a clean kitchen towel; transfer to a bowl. Stir in eggs, cheese, scallions, and dill. Pour over flour mixture and gently stir to combine. (Batter will be very thick.)
  • Spray waffle iron with cooking spray. Spoon one-quarter of batter (about 1/2 cup) into center; spread into a 5-inch circle and close. Cook until golden brown and crisp, 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer directly to the rack of a 200-degree oven to keep warm while cooking remaining waffles. Serve warm, with spinach, creme fraiche, and salmon, sprinkled with dill sprigs and pepper.

CORNMEAL WAFFLES WITH SMOKED SALMON



Cornmeal Waffles With Smoked Salmon image

A touch of fine cornmeal in the batter gives these waffles a delicious crispness. For a savory approach, they are embellished with smoked salmon, crème fraîche and caviar, perfect for a celebratory soiree, midnight supper or brunch. Serve a whole waffle or cut in quarters for appetizers. If you don't have a waffle iron, the batter can also be used to make pancakes or blini. Of course, if preferred, serve these corn-perfumed waffles with sweet toppings instead.

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings as a main course servings, 12 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups/380 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/90 grams fine cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 1/2 cups/840 milliliters buttermilk
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup/120 milliliters melted butter
1 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
8 ounces smoked salmon (about 6 large slices), chilled
4 ounces salmon roe, trout roe or other caviar (about 6 tablespoons)
1/4 cup finely chopped chives
1/4 cup roughly chopped dill
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make the batter: In a mixing bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk in buttermilk, eggs and butter. Beat briefly to produce a thick batter. Set aside at room temperature.
  • Prepare the condiments: Stir together crème fraîche and lemon zest, and transfer to a serving dish. On a platter, arrange the smoked salmon, caviar, chives and dill.
  • Heat the waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. When hot, ladle in a scant cup of batter. (This amount is for a round waffle with a 7-inch diameter. Adjust quantities for irons of other sizes.) Close the iron, and bake each waffle for 4 to 5 minutes, until well browned and quite crisp. You may hold waffles uncovered on a baking sheet in a 250-degree oven, for up to 20 minutes.
  • To serve, lay a slice of smoked salmon in the center of each waffle. Top with a good dollop of crème fraîche and a heaped teaspoon of caviar. Sprinkle with chives, dill and a bit of black pepper. (To serve as appetizers, assemble a platter in the kitchen: Cut waffles in quarters or wedges, and top each with a small piece of salmon, a dab of créme fraîche and some caviar. Garnish with herbs and pepper.)

SALMON AND ZUCCHINI SHEET PAN DINNER



Salmon and Zucchini Sheet Pan Dinner image

This recipe for salmon, tomatoes and zucchini is simple to make with minimal clean up. Pair with some fluffy couscous for a well-balanced meal.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1/4 cup parsley leaves, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large plum tomatoes, halved crosswise
Nonstick cooking spray
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 12-ounce center-cut salmon fillet, skin removed (about 1 1/2 inches thick)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Toss the panko, Parmesan, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper together in a small bowl. Arrange the tomatoes in the center of the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up (trim a small slice from the bottom of each tomato if they will not stand upright) and spoon the panko mixture evenly over each. Spray the breadcrumbs lightly with cooking spray. Lay the zucchini halves cut-side up on one side of the tomatoes. Drizzle zucchini with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the vegetables begin to soften and the panko topping begins to brown, about 18 minutes.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and place the salmon fillet on the other side of the tomatoes. Drizzle the salmon with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the zucchini and tomatoes are completely tender and browned in spots, and the salmon is cooked through but moist, about 12 minutes more. Divide salmon and vegetables between two plates and serve.

ZUCCHINI WAFFLES (GREEN WAFFLES)



Zucchini Waffles (Green Waffles) image

A gluten-free waffle using zucchini and dry potato flakes--think green eggs and ham. Serve with sour cream, tart jam, onion chip dip, or applesauce. They can be breakfast, brunch, lunch, or a side dish. Easier than standing at the stove and frying zucchini pancakes. I like them with my homemade rhubarb jam.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini. Use small to medium-sized zucchini that are firm and have a deep green color. Avoid zucchini that are too large or have blemishes.
  • Grate the zucchini coarsely. This will help to create a tender and fluffy waffle.
  • Add some flavor to the batter. You can add a variety of herbs, spices, or cheeses to the batter to create different flavor combinations. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook the waffles according to the manufacturer's instructions. Different waffle makers have different cooking times, so be sure to follow the instructions for your specific model.
  • Serve the waffles immediately. Zucchini waffles are best served hot and crispy. You can top them with a variety of toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Zucchini waffles are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect zucchini waffles every time.
