Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups white wine
2 carrots
2 celery stalks
1 head garlic, cut in half lengthwise
1 onion, peeled and quartered
1 bay leaf
1 bouquet garni
2 artichokes
2 to 3 lemons, juiced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
Sugar
Red wine vinegar
5 cherry or grape tomatoes
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
10 small basil leaves
10 fresh mozzarella bocconcini
Special equipment: 6-inch wooden skewers

Steps:

  • For the stock: Combine 6 cups water, the wine, carrots, celery, garlic, onion, bay leaf and bouquet garni in a large pot and bring to boil. Then reduce to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes. Strain and set aside.
  • For the vegetables: Trim and peel the artichokes to the heart and remove the choke. Drop the artichoke hearts in a bowl of water with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to prevent oxidation.
  • Cook the artichoke hearts in the vegetable stock until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Cut the artichokes into bite-size pieces and toss in a bowl with some salt, pepper, a few drizzles of olive oil, the parsley, red pepper flakes, a little lemon juice, a few pinches sugar and a splash of red wine vinegar.
  • Cut the tomatoes and marinate with some salt and pepper, a few drizzles of olive oil and a little red wine vinegar.
  • Heat the balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until reduced to a syrup. Chill the reduced balsamic vinegar until ready to serve.
  • Alternate the tomatoes, artichokes, basil leaves and mozzarella on each skewer.
  • Drizzle a little balsamic reduction over each skewer and season with salt and pepper.

CAPRESE ANTIPASTO



Caprese Antipasto image

If you have ever eaten a caprese salad and wished that you could linger with it longer, that there were more tomatoes to spear with your fork, or more milky slices of cheese on the plate, then this is the dish for you. Best at the height of tomato season, it embellishes on the classic caprese, taking its five simple elements - mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, salt and olive oil - and adding roasted peppers, caperberries (or capers), olive and prosciutto. The result is a luscious lunch or light dinner that will make your dining companions swoon. You will wonder why you didn't think of it sooner. Serve with a crusty loaf of bread on the side.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ripe bell peppers, 1 red and 1 yellow if possible
Salt and pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound fresh mozzarella, at room temperature
2 pounds ripe tomatoes, in assorted colors if possible
1/2 pound cherry tomatoes, in assorted colors if possible
Handful of caperberries, or 1 tablespoon large capers, rinsed
Handful of good-quality olives
6 thin slices of prosciutto, more if desired
Handful of basil leaves

Steps:

  • To roast peppers, set them directly in the flames of a stovetop gas burner turned to high, or over hot coals if you happen to be grilling. (You could also roast under the broiler, with peppers as close to heat source as possible.) Turn peppers with tongs until skins are blackened and blistered all over, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate and let cool. To peel, cut peppers lengthwise. Scrape seeds and veins away with your knife, then turn peppers over and scrape away charred skin. Slice peeled peppers into 1/2-inch ribbons and place in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then add 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss. (Peppers may be roasted up to a day ahead.)
  • Cut mozzarella into 1/4-inch slices. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch slices and halve cherry tomatoes.
  • Arrange mozzarella slices in the center of a large platter. Surround with tomatoes and sprinkle lightly with salt. Add roasted pepper strips, caperberries and olives. Drape prosciutto around the platter. Garnish with basil leaves. Drizzle generously with olive oil and serve.
