Best Ricotta Apricot And Posciutto Tartine Recipes

PROSCIUTTO, BRIE AND APRICOT CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven broiler. Put the baguette slices on a baking sheet lined with foil. Cut the Brie into 1/4-inch-thick slices and top each piece of bread with a slice. Broil until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Top each cheese toast with some prosciutto and a dollop of apricot jam and a sprinkle of chives.

CAMEMBERT & PROSCIUTTO TARTINES

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Position an oven rack 5 to 6 inches below the heat.
• Lay the slices of bread in one layer on a sheet pan. Slice both Camemberts 1/3 inch thick across, making about 12 slices from each. Place the cheeses on the bread in a single layer, cutting them to fit and covering most but not all of the surface of the bread. Cover the bread and cheese completely with a layer of prosciutto, sprinkle with the thyme, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• When the broiler is hot, place the sheet pan on the prepared rack and broil the tartines for 2 to 3 minutes (leaving the oven door slightly ajar), turning the pan once to brown evenly, until the prosciutto is browned and crispy. Watch the tartines carefully so they don't burn! Cut each tartine crosswise into 1 1/2-inch slices, sprinkle with chives, and serve warm.

APRICOT TARTE TATIN

Steps:

• Make the pastry. In a food processor, combine the flour, butter, sugar and salt. Process until the mixture looks like coarse bread crumbs (about five seconds). Add the cold water and process briefly, turning the machine on and off, until the mixture looks like small peas. Do not allow to become a ball in the machine.
• Turn mixture out onto lightly floured board and knead lightly until it holds together. With heel of palm of your hand, flatten it into a thick pancake about six inches across. Wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. It will keep unfrozen up to three days before being used.
• Cut apricots in half and remove pits. Melt butter and sugar in nine-inch cast-iron skillet. Arrange apricot halves in circles on top and cook over moderate heat, without burning, until sugar begins to caramelize. Be careful not to burn. Cool completely.
• Roll out pastry into 10-inch circle. Place it on top of apricots, cutting off excess dough. Put edges down over fruit. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Prick the pastry all over with the point of a knife. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the pastry is cooked.
• Cool and turn out onto a plate. Do not be dismayed if some of the apricots stick to pan; simply scrape them off and put them on top of pastry.
