GOAT CHEESE, PESTO AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO TERRINE



Goat Cheese, Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomato Terrine image

Provided by Martha

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup pine nuts
11 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
¼ heavy cream (plus more if necessary)
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons pesto (homemade or store-bought)
5 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and finely chopped
Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
Freshly ground black pepper for garnish
Crackers or sliced bread for serving

Steps:

  • In a small dry pan, toast the pine nuts over medium heat until lightly golden brown. Remove from the heat and pour onto a plate to cool. (The nuts will continue to cook after you remove them from the heat so be sure that you don't let them brown too much - they can easily burn!)
  • Line a 2 cup bowl (try to use a bowl with sharply sloped sides) with a piece of plastic wrap. (Be sure to cut a large enough piece of plastic wrap that you have several inches of plastic wrap extended over the sides of the bowl.)
  • In a large mixing bowl with a fork, mash together the goat cheese, ¼ cup of cream, salt and a few grinds of black pepper and mix until well blended. If the goat cheese seems very dry, add up to another ¼ cup of cream - you want the mixture to be soft but not soggy.
  • Spoon about 1/3rd of the goat cheese into the lined bowl, pressing down gently with a spoon to pack the cheese into an even layer. The spread the pesto over the cheese covering it completely (you will want some of the basil to peak out of the finished terrine, so make sure the pesto reaches the outer edges). Then top the pesto with another 1/3rd of the cheese (I found it helpful to drop the cheese with a teaspoon all over the pesto and then gently spread to cover the pesto evenly). Next, add the sun-dried tomatoes in a layer and sprinkle with all but about ½ tablespoon of the toasted pine nuts. Finally, add the remaining layer of goat cheese.
  • Fold the plastic wrap edges over the top of the final layer of cheese and gently pack down. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (may be refrigerated for longer).
  • About a ½ hour before serving, remove the terrine from the refrigerator. Place the bowl in a shallow bowl of very warm water for about 30 seconds (you only want the warm water to go halfway up the bowl). Then pull on the edges of the plastic wrap to loosen the terrine from the bowl.
  • Place your serving dish over the glass bowl, making sure that the plastic edges are not under the terrine. Then invert the terrine onto your serving dish. If the terrine does not slide out immediately, leave it inverted for about a minute to allow the weight of the terrine to break the suction in the bottom of the bowl. If it still doesn't come out, try placing the bowl in warm water again and repeat the above steps.
  • Once the terrine is out, gently peel off the plastic wrap. Drizzle with a little olive oil and let sit for half an hour to warm up. Sprinkle with the remaining pine nuts and some freshly ground black pepper. Serve with crackers or sliced bread.

Grits with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto and Goat Cheese image

Comforting main or side-dish made rich with tomato pesto and goat cheese and baked in individual casseroles.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND GOAT CHEESE OMELET



Sun-Dried Tomato and Goat Cheese Omelet image

Sometimes the filling for my omelet is determined by something I find in my pantry. I don't recall what led me to buy the jar of sun-dried tomatoes that went into this one, but they were very much at home in an omelet.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     breakfast, for one, lunch, main course

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 eggs
1 tablespoon low-fat milk
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 small garlic clove
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped oil-packed sun dried tomatoes
1/2 ounce crumbled goat cheese (about 2 tablespoons)
A few leaves of fresh basil, cut in thin strips

Steps:

  • Break the eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the milk, salt, pepper and garlic.
  • Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
  • As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the sun-dried tomatoes, cheese and basil over the middle of the egg "pancake," then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over onto itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate, and serve.
