Turkey And Caviar Sandwiches Recipes

CAVIAR SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the crème fraîche, scallions, black pepper and kosher salt. Stir aggressively with a rubber spatula until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the crème fraîche is smooth and spreadable. Set aside.
• Bring a small pot of water to boil over medium-high heat. Carefully lower your eggs into the boiling water using a slotted spoon, taking care not to crack the shells. Cook the eggs for 7 minutes, adjusting heat as needed to maintain a gentle boil. Remove eggs to a bowl of ice water, and cool completely. Gently crack eggs all over, peel and roughly chop. Set aside.
• Toast white bread until light golden brown. Remove from toaster, and butter each slice, as we say, wall to wall.
• Repeat with the scallion crème fraîche so that both halves of each sandwich have an even schmear.
• Spread an even layer of chopped egg on 4 slices (of the total of 8 slices) of toast.
• Evenly dot the caviar on top of the chopped egg.
• Sprinkle chives on top of the caviar.
• Place the remaining 4 slices of crème-fraîche toast on top of the egg-caviar side. Press down very gently, and slice in half on the bias. Serve at once.

SLOW-COOKED TURKEY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a 4-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 6 ingredients. Cover and cook on low until vegetables are tender and cheese is melted, 3-4 hours. Stir mixture; spoon 1/2 cup onto each bun.

DELI-STYLE ROAST TURKEY FOR SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees (230 degrees C).
• Pat turkey breast with a paper towel to remove any excess liquid and place into a baking dish just big enough to fit it. Use the tip of a sharp small knife to poke the skin of the turkey breast all over. Drizzle over olive oil and use tongs to rub; flip turkey breast over a few times, or until all surfaces are coated with the oil. You can also use a brush. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes.
• While turkey rests, mix salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and paprika together in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Use tongs to grab the turkey breast with one hand while using your other hand to sprinkle the spice rub evenly over the entire surface, including the sides. Finish with the skin side facing up.
• Add about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the baking dish.
• Place prepared turkey breast into the center of the oven. Immediately lower the heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Roast until a probe thermometer stuck into center of the thickest part of the breast reads 150 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Let cool before wrapping. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator, about 8 hours, or overnight. Once meat is cold, slice thinly and serve.

OPEN-FACED HOT TURKEY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Remove turkey and butter from the refrigerator an hour or so before cooking, so that they are approaching room temperature when the turkey goes into the oven.
• Heat oven to 400. Rub turkey with butter, using your fingers to slide butter under the skin. Season the turkey with salt, pepper, sage and lemon zest.
• Place turkey thighs, skin-side down, into a cast-iron skillet or medium-size oven-safe gratin pan, and roast in the oven for 30 minutes. Turn turkey thighs over, add the wine to the pan or skillet and continue roasting for another 30 minutes or so, basting occasionally, until the turkey is cooked through, golden and crisp, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the turkey's thickest part reads in the neighborhood of 165 degrees. Remove turkey thighs from the pan, and allow to rest on a cutting board while you make the gravy.
• Heat the stock in a small pot. Drain off all but four tablespoons of the fat in the pan or gratin dish. Place pan or dish over low heat on the stove, and whisk the flour into it to make a roux. Stir the roux for 3 to 4 minutes, and then slowly start to add the stock to it, whisking as you do, until the mixture is smooth. Cook, continuing to stir, until the gravy has thickened, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream, milk or half-and-half, stir and allow the gravy to thicken again, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To make the sandwiches, carve meat and skin from the turkey thighs, and assemble two separate piles. Toast the bread, and lay one slice on each plate. Put a pile of the meat on each piece of toast, spreading it across the surface of the bread. Absolutely drench each sandwich with the gravy, and serve alongside buttered peas, mashed potatoes and a dollop of cranberry sauce. For this application, canned cranberry sauce is, by etiquette, required.

OPEN-FACED TURKEY SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat; saute onion and celery until tender, 4-6 minutes. Stir in flour until blended; cook and stir until golden brown. Gradually stir in stock and milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, 4-6 minutes., Add cream cheese, peas, turkey, salt and pepper; cook and stir until blended and heated through. Serve over toast. If desired, top with tomato and parsley.

TURKEY AND CAVIAR SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Cut the turkey breast across the grain into very thin slices.
• Blend the mayonnaise with the caviar, chili sauce or tomato ketchup, Cognac and chives. Spread the caviar mayonnaise on each of four slices of bread and arrange one fourth of the turkey meat on top. Smear one side of each of the remaining four slices of bread with the mayonnaise mixture and add the slices, smeared side down over the sandwiches.

"MIND BLOWING" TURKEY SANDWICH

Steps:

• For the tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• On a small rimmed baking sheet, spread the tomatoes, olive oil, salt, garlic and basil. Toss well to coat. Roast until the tomatoes are popped and beginning to brown, about 25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
• For the spread: Mix together the mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl.
• For the sandwich: Lay out the bread and spread the mayonnaise-mustard mixture on each slice. Working 2 slices at a time, place 2 lettuce leaves on one slice and about 6 roasted tomatoes on the opposite slice. Ribbon 3 slices of turkey on the lettuce. Place the 2 halves together and secure with 2 toothpicks with a cornichon on each one. Continue with the remaining ingredients. Cut in half before serving.

DINER-STYLE HOT TURKEY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• For the turkey breasts:
• Arrange a wire rack over a baking sheet. Combine the butter with the herbs. Loosen the skin on the turkey breasts and place the butter between the skin and breast meat, working out to the edges evenly. Place a bay leaf between the skin and meat. Spray the skin with olive oil, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast to 165 degrees internal temperature, about 1 hour. Remove and cover loosely with foil to cool back to room temp, reserving the drippings for the gravy. Then cover and store for a make-ahead meal, as well as another night's meal, such as the Turkey Club Enchilada Casserole.
• For the stuffing:
• Melt 6 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium heat. Grease a casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of remaining butter, and reserve the rest to dot the top of the stuffing once it is in its casserole dish. To the melted butter, add the herbs, celery, apples, onions, bay leaf and some salt and pepper. Cook to tender, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the stuffing cubes and moisten with the stock until damp, but not wet. Fill the casserole dish and dot the top with butter. Cover and refrigerate to store.
• For the gravy:
• Melt the butter in a large skillet and season liberally with black pepper. Whisk in the flour until light golden in color. Then whisk in the stock and Worcestershire and simmer at low boil to thicken. Add any pan drippings from the roasted turkey breasts. Once the gravy lightly coats the back of a spoon, add a ladle of it to the egg yolk while beating with fork. Then add the yolk back to gravy to gloss it up, stir in. Add the mustard, if using. Add salt to taste. Cool and store.
• To serve:
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the rack in center of oven.
• Bring the stuffing to room temp, then bake until crispy on top and hot through.
• Reheat the gravy over medium heat, partially covered and stirring occasionally.
• While the stuffing is in the oven and the gravy is reheating, heat up an additional couple cups of plain stock in a high-sided skillet. Thinly slice 1 turkey breast, removing the bay leaf when you get to it.
• For each sandwich, very lightly toast a slice of bread and place on a dinner plate. Top the bread with a scoop of stuffing (I use an ice cream scoop). Set a few slices of turkey into broth to heat through. Arrange the turkey slices over the mound of stuffing. Liberally ladle the gravy over the top of the sandwich and garnish with chopped parsley. Save any leftover gravy for another meal, such as the Turkey Club Enchilada Casserole later in the week.
