OLIVE PUFFS



Olive Puffs image

These puff pastry-wrapped olives are our family's favorite holiday appetizer. We make them with a variety of olives - pimento stuffed green, plump kalamata, Provencal - just make sure they are pitted. We like to use strongly flavored olives; the flavor of canned ripe olives disappears in the puff pastry. You can make these ahead, and freeze; allow 30 minutes for the pastry to thaw before baking. Another advantage: the kids like to make them and eat them.

BAKED POTATO PUFFS



Baked Potato Puffs image

The hardest line cook job I ever had was at the Carnelian Room, where on a busy night I'd prepare over 250 steaks and chops. The biggest challenge was frying French potato puffs to order. Called pommes dauphine, it's one of the finest foods ever invented. To save your kitchen from that deep fryer smell, I wanted to try a baked version. I was very happy with the results. Even though they weren't as dark and crispy as the fried version, the inside was virtually identical. Enjoy these as a warm snack with a dip, or to go alongside some eggs or grilled steak.

Time 1h15m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 small Yukon gold potatoes, or as needed, quartered
½ cup water
¼ cup butter
kosher salt to taste
½ cup flour
2 large eggs
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Butter 24 mini muffin cups.

  • Transfer pastry dough to a bowl. Spread in the bowl and let cool, about 5 minutes. Mix in eggs using a spatula until dough is very soft and sticky. Add 2 cups of the mashed potatoes and mix until well combined. Add a pinch of salt, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg. Give it one last mix.
  • Scoop potato dough into the greased muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and puffed, about 20 minutes. Let rest for 1 minute before removing puffs onto a wire rack. Let cool for 5 minutes and serve warm.

OLIVE CHEESE PUFFS

When I was a kid growing up in Texas, my best friend's mom used to make these every Christmas. Thank you Schotzie! Wouldn't you know it - I married a guy who hates olives. These tasty little treats can be frozen in single layer. When frozen, store in plastic zipper bag. If frozen, bake at 400ºF for 18-20 minutes.

OLIVE PUFFS



Olive Puffs image

I prepared these little puff pastry wrapped olives last Christmas and saw them disappear very quickly. You could use the jalapeño stuffed, garlic stuffed, anchovy stuffed, or even kalamata olives instead of the pimento ones. They can also be rolled in sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or grated Parmesan cheese before baking to give a bit more flare. This recipe was originally published on Allrecipes.com. That site stated that they could be made ahead and frozen, allowing 30 minutes for the pastry to thaw before baking.

CHEDDAR AND OLIVE BALLS



Cheddar and Olive Balls image

I based this recipe on one from a famous Virginia colonial tavern, but I've had much better success with this one than the one published in their cookbook. It's great for parties, picnics, or potlucks. It will also freeze well (uncooked) for quick prep anytime!

Provided by MHAMMOND

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Vegetable     Olives

Time 1h10m

Yield 45

Number Of Ingredients 5

18 ½ ounces extra sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
½ cup butter, softened
½ teaspoon paprika
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
45 pitted green olives

Steps:

  • Allow cheese to sit out until it is at room temperature. In a large bowl, mix together the cheese, butter and paprika using a pastry blender. Gradually mix in flour, first using the pastry blender, then using your hands. Mix until the dough pulls together. It should form a solid ball with a smooth appearance, but have a crumbly texture when pulled apart. If dough appears too dry, add more shredded cheese.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Pinch off a small piece of dough, and cover an olive with it. Roll gently between your palms to smooth and seal the olive inside the ball. Place onto an ungreased cookie sheet and repeat with remaining dough and olives. Place the tray of covered olives into the refrigerator for 10 minutes to firm up.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until browned. Serve hot or at room temperature.
