VEGETABLES à LA GRECQUE



Vegetables à la Grecque image

I wrote that I found these perfect - the ur-preserves - and then tasted them again. And I can only affirm it as a truth. They are richer than plain vinegar pickles, which lets them be their own hors d'oeuvre, in a small chilled bowl, with olives perhaps alongside. They are deeper tasting and more eloquent than crudité. They are piquant enough to awaken the appetite without sating it. I love them, and they are very simple to make.

Time 1m

Yield About 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup good olive oil
1/2 cup white-wine vinegar
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
4 tablespoons good white wine
4 cups water
5 1/2 teaspoons iodized salt
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
3 teaspoons brown sugar
2 whole dried chilies
2 whole bay leaves
1 teaspoon saffron threads
A few whole branches fresh thyme
1 medium onion, halved vertically, then sliced vertically
2 cups thinly, vertically cut fennel
6 cups quartered cauliflower or flavorful mushrooms, like trumpets, king oysters and creminis (separated by type)
2 cups thinly, diagonally cut celery

Steps:

  • In a pot, bring the liquids, spices and herbs to just below a boil.
  • Cook each vegetable, separated by type, in the seasoned liquid. Start with the onion, then fennel, then cauliflower or mushrooms, then celery. Cook each until it can be pierced with a knife and tastes delicious. As each batch is done, scoop it out with a slotted spoon or a hand-held sieve. Place on a cookie sheet to cool.
  • If spices or bits of herb stick to the vegetables, put what you can back in the pot and don't worry about the rest - everything will marinate together, so things will redistribute. When all the vegetables are cooked, layer them in a 1-quart Mason jar - it looks nice if you do mushrooms, then onions and so on. Pour all of the cooking liquid over them, without straining. The olive oil in the liquid will rise to the top and create a seal.
  • Serve alone as an hors d'oeuvre, or as part of a salad, or on little buttered toasts. Or in an omelet. Or in a sandwich. Anywhere, really, but in a strawberry tart. Refrigerate for up to a month.

VEGETABLES à LA GRECQUE



Vegetables à la Grecque image

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     pickles, appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 tablespoons white wine vinegar, champagne vinegar or sherry vinegar
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 or 5 plump garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 good-size shallot, coarsely chopped
Bouquet garni made with 4 sprigs parsley, 2 bay leaves and large sprig of thyme
4 teaspoons coriander seeds, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
12 black peppercorns
1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt, to taste
3/4 pound carrots, peeled, quartered at fat ends, halved at narrow ends, and cut in 2-inch lengths
1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
1/2 pound cremini or white mushrooms, trimmed and quartered if large, or halved if small
Trimmed hearts from 4 medium-size artichokes, halved or quartered (plus leaves for garnish, optional)
Juice of 1 large lemon
Coarse sea salt or fleur de sel
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, or use a mix of herbs such as chervil, tarragon, parsley, marjoram, thyme and chives

Steps:

  • In a 3- or 4-quart saucepan combine vinegar, wine, olive oil, garlic cloves, shallot, bouquet garni, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, peppercorns, kosher salt and 3 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook 15 to 30 minutes while you prepare vegetables.
  • Add carrots to the broth and simmer 5 minutes. Add cauliflower, bring back to a simmer, and cook another 15 minutes, until carrots and cauliflower are tender but not mushy. Using a slotted spoon, remove vegetables to a bowl. Some of the broth and seeds can come along with them.
  • Add mushrooms to broth and simmer 5 minutes. Remove to bowl with carrots and cauliflower.
  • Stir broth and ladle 11/2 cups plus some of the coriander seeds into a small saucepan. Set aside.
  • Add artichoke hearts to the pot in which you cooked the other vegetables and simmer 25 to 30 minutes, until tender. Transfer to bowl with other cooked vegetables. If using artichoke leaves, steam them now. When finished, discard this broth.
  • Bring reserved broth in the small saucepan to a boil and cook until liquid reduces to 1/2 cup. Pour over the vegetables, add lemon juice and fleur de sel and toss. Taste and adjust seasoning. Leave at room temperature until ready to serve (for best flavor, let vegetables marinate for a few hours), or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Just before serving, garnish with herbs and, if you wish, with steamed artichoke leaves, which can be dipped into the marinade. Serve on small plates with the reduced marinade spooned on top.

VEGETABLES A LA GRECQUE



Vegetables a La Grecque image

Here's a recipe, borrowed from the Greeks, that offers a marvelous way to bring out the goodness and tang of fresh vegetables. They're simmered until just crisp-tender in an herb/wine/lemon juice marinade. The result is wonderfully savory, as well as healthful. Carrots, mushrooms, green beans, leeks and zucchini, artfully arranged on a platter, make a dish both pretty and tasty. Served hot, it will complement any meal. Served cold, it's a pleasant appetizer.

  • Slice off and discard the mushroom stems. Rinse and drain the mushrooms. If the mushroom caps are larger than three-quarters inch in diameter, cut them in half vertically. Put the mushrooms, wine, lemon juice, olive oil, coriander seeds and one-fourth cup water in a 3 1/2 - or 4-quart pot. Cover the pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat, gently shaking the pan a few times during the first few minutes of cooking. Simmer gently, covered, for 12 minutes to cook through.
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the mushrooms from the pot and put them into a bowl to cool. Return the mushroom liquid to a good simmer, adding any remaining liquid that the resting mushrooms have released back to the pan to reduce. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to one-fourth cup, then remove from the heat.
  • Pour the reduced liquid over the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cool to room temperature. The recipe to this point can be made ahead and the mushrooms stored, refrigerated, for 1 to 2 days.
  • Heat a grill over medium heat. Grill both sides of the bread until lightly browned. Divide the mushrooms with the juices among four small bowls. Sprinkle each with fresh parsley and serve with the bread.
