ASPARAGUS GRUYERE TART



Asparagus Gruyere Tart image

This is from Canadian Living's Best Recipes Ever show. It is a great appetizer when you are looking for something a little different. I used the prerolled puff pastry for this, just unroll, and use the parchment to line your baking pan. It can be served warm or chilled.

SAVORY WAFFLES



Savory Waffles image

"One thing my kids really love," says Chef Linton Hopkins, "is when it's raining outside at lunchtime and we make a batch of savory waffles. Instead of sugar and syrup, we just fold in Parmesan and Gruyère, if I have some sitting in the refrigerator, and salt and pepper. We have a waffle iron that has shapes of animals and a barn, so I ask my kids, 'Do you want to be the pig today? Or the chicken? Or have a cow?'?" Try adding herbs and other seasonal produce, like pumpkin puree, to the batter instead of cheese. In the springtime you can add sautéed and chopped asparagus to the batter.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups waffle and pancake mix
2 eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
3/4 cup grated rennet-free Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup grated rennet-free Gruyère or similar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees and place a waiting plate to warm inside. Heat a waffle maker until a flick of water beads and bounces around.
  • In a bowl, add waffle mix, eggs, milk, oil, salt and pepper, and mix until just combined, adding more milk if the mix is too thick. It should be the consistency of pudding. Then fold in the cheeses.
  • Lightly butter the waffle maker, and spoon judicious dollops of the mix onto the center of the hot waffle iron and spread just a bit. The mix will spread when the lid closes and expand as it cooks, so adding too much will be a bit messy as it bubbles out the sides.
  • As the waffles finish, use a fork to lift them off and put them in the oven to stay warm while the rest are made. Waffles are best served warm. Freeze any leftover waffles to enjoy later.

1 1/2 cups Jennie's All-Purpose Baking Mix, recipe follows
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 eggs
2 ounces gruyere cheese, shredded
1/2 cup Caramelized Onions, recipe follows, or leftover sauteed onions
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
4 tablespoons butter
3 large yellow onions, thinly sliced

  • Add the Jennie's All-Purpose Baking Mix to a deep bowl, and set aside.
  • Add the buttermilk, butter and eggs to a bowl or measuring cup. Beat with a fork to mix well. Pour into the bowl with the baking mix. Stir with a fork until just combined, and there are no visible traces of flour. Stir in the cheese and the Caramelized Onions. Rest the batter for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the waffle iron. Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the waffle iron, and cook
  • Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt to a large container. Cover and shake well to combine. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month. Shake before each use to re-mix the ingredients.
  • Melt the butter in a deep skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions. Stir to coat the onions with the butter. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover the onions, and raise the heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring occasionally until the liquid mostly evaporates and the onions turn a deep golden color, about 10 minutes. Season with salt.
