Carne Cruda With Anchovy And Garlic Recipes

ANCHOVY PASTA WITH GARLIC BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Very thinly slice 4 garlic cloves (a mandoline works great) and set aside. Pulse remaining 4 garlic cloves in a food processor until finely chopped. Add bread and lemon zest and pulse until coarse crumbs form; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Cook breadcrumb mixture, stirring often, until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer breadcrumb mixture with a slotted spoon to a small bowl.
• Heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in same pot over medium-low. Cook reserved sliced garlic, stirring occasionally, until golden at edges, about 1 minute. Add anchovies and chiles and cook, stirring, until anchovies are dissolved, about 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, about 3 minutes less than package directions.
• Using tongs, transfer pasta to pot with sauce along with 1 cup pasta cooking liquid. Cook, tossing often, until pasta is al dente. Add 3 Tbsp. pasta cooking liquid, then gradually add cheese, tossing until melted and emulsified. Remove from heat, add parsley, butter, and half of breadcrumb mixture and toss until combined and butter is melted. If pasta seems dry, add more pasta cooking liquid and oil and toss again. Season with salt and pepper, and more lemon juice if desired.
• Divide pasta among bowls. Top with remaining breadcrumb mixture.

ANCHOVY AND GARLIC TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Put the halved baguette on a baking sheet. Rub the cut sides with the garlic clove, then drizzle with the olive oil and spread the butter on evenly.
• Place the cut anchovies evenly on the bread and broil until brown and bubbly, about 4 minutes. Cut into 12 even pieces, crunch some salt over the top and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

SWISS CHARD WITH GARLIC AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Wash the chard. Cut off the white stalks and trim their ends and any discolored portions. Heat the oil in a covered pan and add the garlic and anchovies, allow this to cook until the anchovies have melted into the oil, about 5 minutes. Cut the chard stalks into 1-inch pieces, blanch them in boiling water and refresh under a cold tap. Drain well, add them to the oil and season with the pepper. Cover and cook gently for 10 minutes. If you wish you may add the chard greens at this stage and cook for a further 3 to 5 minutes or you may wish to use the greens for something else.

QUICK ANCHOVY AND GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• 1/2 pound pasta for 2 generous servings.
• Prepare the sauce while the pasta water is boiling.
• I like to use vermicelli.
• In a small skillet melt the butter.
• Add minced garlic.
• Cook until golden brown until it smells toasted.
• Do not let it scorch or it will taste bitter.
• When the garlic is golden brown, add the entire can of anchovies, including oil and the 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Cook and stir until the anchovies dissolve.
• If the pasta is not cooked yet, turn off the heat.
• When the pasta is cooked, finish the sauce.
• Add light cream to the sauce, and cook until it comes to a rolling boil.
• Pour over the well drained pasta and toss vigorously.
• Serve with parmesan cheese.

CARNE CRUDA WITH ANCHOVY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, go over the meat one more time to ensure all excess fat and sinew have been removed. Wrap the meat tightly in plastic and freeze overnight.
• Mash the garlic with the flat side of a chef's knife, then chop until puréed and put into a bowl. Chop the anchovy fillets very finely and add to the garlic. Using a grater, zest the lemon into the bowl. Add the olive oil and stir to blend.
• Remove the meat from the freezer and unwrap. Using your sharpest knife, slice the meat into 1/4-inch slices, then crosscut the slices into 1/4-inch strips. Cut across the strips to form a fine dice.
• Add the meat to the bowl along with the water to help smooth out the mixture and make it a little less rich. Toss gently. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
• Instead of plating the carne cruda individually, pile it elegantly on a plate and make a shallow depression in the center. Separate an impeccably fresh egg and gently place the yolk in the well.
