Babybel And Fig Jam On Brioche Toast Recipes

SEARED FOIE GRAS AND LINGONBERRY JAM ON BRIOCHE TOAST

Steps:

• Cut brioche into 3/4-inch-thick slices, then into 60 (1 1/2-inch) cubes. Heat 1 tablespoon butter with 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides. Cook brioche cubes, 12 at a time, until golden brown on top and bottom, about 3 minutes total. Transfer brioche as cooked to a rack to cool and sprinkle with salt to taste. Between batches, carefully wipe skillet clean with paper towels and add more butter and oil.
• Stir pepper and juice into jam. Chill jam, covered, until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Cut foie gras into 1- by 1/2-inch pieces and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Reduce heat to moderate and cook foie gras, about 20 pieces at a time, until golden brown on both sides, about 1 1/2 minutes total. Transfer foie gras as cooked to a shallow baking pan with a spatula and arrange in 1 layer. Between batches, carefully wipe skillet clean.
• Reheat foie gras as needed in middle of oven 2 minutes, or until just hot, before assembling hors d'oeuvres. Just before serving, top toasts with lingonberry jam, then foie gras.

CRAB SALAD ON BRIOCHE TOAST

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the crab, mayonnaise, wasabi, 3/4 of the chopped apples, all of the fennel (including green tops), the radishes, juice and zest of 1 Meyer lemon, and salt, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining chopped apples with remaining lemon juice and zest. Season with salt, to taste, and set aside for garnish.
• Toast: Remove the crusts from the brioche and cut into 3/4-inch thick slices. Stack the slices and cut into 1 1/2-inch squares. Alternately, you could use a cookie cutter to make circles or other small shapes of your choice. You should have about 48 pieces when finished.
• Working in batches, melt some of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the brioche, in batches, and toast until golden brown, turning over and adding more butter, if necessary. Repeat with remaining butter and brioche. Toasts can be made up to 48 hours in advance and stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
• To serve, put a rounded tablespoon of crab salad on each brioche toast and top with a sprinkling of chopped lemon-marinated apples.
