Antipasto Braid Recipes

ANTIPASTO

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients in large pot. Boil 5 minutes.
• Add next 4 ingredients, boil 10 minutes.
• Add balance of ingredients. Try not to break up shrimp and tuna too much. Bring to just boiling.
• Process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes.
• Note: *Drain everything except olives and pickled onion juice. Biffy and Frank's flub (taste great.) Omit vinegar.
• Optional - small amount of brown sugar, HP sauce, chopped garlic, hot pepper sauce (dried or fresh) WE NEVER USE THESE.
• Something sure has changed with Recipe Zaar! When trying to put the ingredients in it was a big pain in the butt for the sizes. I've converted the grams to ounces but I didn't have everything in my cupboard to actually look at so I guessed. But most cans come pretty standard, and the "Frozen Shrimp" is a large bag -- it wouldn't let me put just "large.".

• In a 9 x 13 ungreased baking pan, unroll one package of crescent rolls, sealing perforations and press dough to edges of pan.
• Top the crescent roll dough with the ham, swiss, salami, provolone and the pepperoni.
• Slice the roasted peppers into strips, and lay them on top of the pepperoni layer.
• Beat 2 eggs with the Parmesan cheese, and pour over the roasted peppers.
• Top with the second package of crescent rolls, again sealing the perforations as best as you can and pressing dough to the edges of the pan.
• Beat the last egg and spread on top of the dough.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove foil and bake until golden brown, 10-15 minutes more.
