PIGS IN A BLANKET



Pigs in a Blanket image

For decades, pigs in a blanket have been a staple on the cocktail-party circuit. The little sausages are the easy part. It's the pastry which, at its finest, should approximate buttery, flaky French puff pastry or pâte feuilletée. Suppose you could make decently flaky puff pastry in minutes? Christian Leue, the manager of La Boîte, a spice emporium in New York, has developed just such a marvel. And it works.

Time 3h30m

Yield 48 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 sticks salted butter, frozen
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading
1/2 cup full-fat sour cream
48 cocktail franks
Flour, for rolling
Mustard, for dipping

Steps:

  • Make the pastry: Cut each stick of frozen butter into four pieces and grate using a shredding disc in a food processor. Change to the regular blade. Add the 1 1/2 cups flour and pulse 15 or 20 times, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the sour cream and pulse until the dough comes together. (This can also be done by hand, using a box grater to shred the butter, working the flour into it with your fingertips or a fork, then mixing in the sour cream.)
  • Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead briefly to form a smooth ball. Divide the dough in half and flatten each piece. Place each in a zipper-top sandwich bag, press out any air, seal the bag and use a rolling pin to roll the dough until it fills the bag, forming a square. Refrigerate two hours or overnight.
  • Make the pigs in a blanket: Heat a 10-inch skillet, preferably cast-iron, on medium. If your cocktail franks came in a plastic package, pat them dry on paper towels. Place the franks in the pan and cook, turning, frequently, until they're lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Remove dough from sandwich bags by cutting the bags and peeling them off. Roll each square of dough on a lightly floured board into a 9-by-12-inch rectangle that is about 1/8-inch thick. Cut each into four 9-by-3-inch strips, then cut each strip crosswise into six 1 1/2-inch sections. You should have 48 rectangles that are each 1 1/2 by 3 inches.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Place a cocktail frank on each piece of dough, across the rectangle so the longer side can be wrapped around the frank. Roll the dough around the frank, moisten the edge with water and press closed. Place each wrapped frank seam side down on the baking sheet.
  • Bake until golden, about 25 minutes. Serve at once or let cool and refrigerate or freeze, then let come to room temperature and warm at 250 degrees for 15 minutes. Serve with mustard alongside for dipping.

CHEESY-MUSTARD PIGS IN A BLANKET



Cheesy-Mustard Pigs In A Blanket image

I have been making these for years and usually have them with Recipe #213326 on a Saturday night. They have a little cheese stuffing and are wraped up in a crescent roll. Then I put mustard and relish on them when they are on my plate. The others just eat them with a little mustard. They are so good.

PIGS AND MUSTARD GREENS IN A BLANKET



Pigs and Mustard Greens in a Blanket image

As a kid, I would always look forward to eating pigs in a blanket around the holidays. I am always looking for fun ways to incorporate vegetables into my recipes these days, so in this recipe I use a mustard green filling along with the smoked mini links as a play on the use of the classic mustard application. The addition of black mustard seeds give a beautiful texture and flavor to elevate this fun holiday classic.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Kosher salt
1 pound mustard greens, cleaned
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
3 shallots, finely chopped
5 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fine cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or 1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Japanese mayonnaise, such as Kewpie
2 cans crescent rolls, such as Pillsbury
48 cocktail-size smoked links
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
Black mustard seeds, for sprinkling
Smoked flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
3/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup Japanese mayonnaise, such as Kewpie
2 teaspoons freshly ground horseradish
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the pigs and mustard greens: In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the mustard greens for about 1 minute. Remove the greens from the pot by pouring the contents into a colander. Then plunge the greens into an ice water bath. Pull the greens out of the ice water, squeeze the excess water from the greens by placing them in a clean, dry cloth and applying pressure. Once most of the water has been drained, give them a rough chop and set aside.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, and jalapeno. Sprinkle in 2 teaspoons kosher salt and sweat over low heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the mustard greens to the pan, turn up the heat to high and stir to fully combine. Remove from the heat and pour into a bowl. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon kosher salt, the cornmeal, cayenne pepper or red chile flakes, mustard and mayonnaise. Let the mixture cool in the bowl over an ice bath, rotating the bowl until cool, about 5 minutes.
  • To assemble, place 2 teaspoons of the mustard greens mixture onto the widest part of a crescent dough triangle. Place a smoked link on top of the mustard greens. Tuck in the sides of the roll over the smoked link and roll away from you, towards the tip of the dough. Repeat with the remaining dough and links. Brush all the tops with melted butter, sprinkle with mustard seeds and smoked sea salt and bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating halfway through.
  • For the chive Dijonaise: Whisk the mustard, mayonnaise, horseradish, kosher salt and chives in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Plate the pigs in a blanket and serve with the chive Dijonaise.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, flavorful cheese and mustard, and use high-quality hot dogs or sausages.
  • Don't overfill the crescent roll dough. Too much filling will make it difficult to seal the rolls and they may burst open during baking.
  • To prevent the rolls from drying out, brush them with melted butter or an egg wash before baking.
  • Bake the rolls until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve the rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.
