Best 4 Chive Popovers Recipes

CHIVE POPOVERS

Steps:

• If eggs and milk are cold, before combining, submerge whole eggs in warm water 10 minutes and heat milk until just warm. Preheat oven to 450 degrees with a nonstick popover pan on rack in lowest position.
• After you have combined eggs and milk in a large bowl, whisk together until very frothy. This should only take about 1 minute. Have the flour and salt measured out and ready to go.
• Add flour and salt to egg mixture. We tested out a blender and an electric stand mixer when making the batter, but concluded that whisking by hand produces the most tender, airy popovers.
• Whisk flour and salt into egg mixture just until batter is the consistency of heavy cream with some small lumps remaining. See those air bubbles? They are what will cause the popovers to rise.
• Remove popover pan from oven and coat with cooking spray. If you prefer a standard muffin tin, only coat (and fill) the outer cups; they get better circulation in the oven. (Also, reduce baking time by 5 minutes.)
• Whisk chives into batter. Fill popover cups about three-quarters full with batter. Bake 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until golden brown and dry to the touch, about 20 minutes more.
• Popovers lose their crunch if they linger in the pan, so turn them out on a wire rack immediately and poke a small opening in the side of each with a paring knife to let the steam escape. Serve right away.

POT-AU-FEU OF SPRING VEGETABLES WITH CHIVE POPOVERS

Steps:

• To make the popovers, grease an eight-cup muffin tin with 1 tablespoon of butter. Put the egg, yogurt, milk, melted butter, flour, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix until combined. Fill each tin 1/4 full and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon minced chives. Add more batter until each cup is half full.
• Put the muffin tin in a cold oven and set the heat to 450 degrees. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until the popovers are lightly golden, about 15 to 20 more minutes. Take popovers out of tins immediately. Cool on a rack.
• To make the pot-au-feu, put the lemon slices in a skillet, add salt, sugar and water. Simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool. Mince when cool. Put the minced lemon in a food processor or blender, add the roasted garlic and olive oil and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, pour the chicken broth in a large pot and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, leeks and cranberry beans. Lower the heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Add the carrots and simmer gently until tender, about an additional 10 minutes. Add the fava beans and simmer for 1 minute more. Using a slotted spoon, take all of the vegetables out of the pot. Set aside.
• Bring the broth to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until it reduces to 4 cups, about 10 to 15 minutes. Wreath the inside of 4 bowls with spinach and add the vegetables. Set aside. Remove saucepan from heat and whisk in the pureed lemon and garlic. Strain through a sieve lined with cheesecloth. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle broth into bowls and garnish with parsley. Serve with popovers.

BLUE CHEESE POPOVERS

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, salt, cayenne, milk, oil, and flour together in a large measuring cup or mixing bowl just until blended.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow to rest for 1 hour on the counter, or in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, up to overnight.
• Grease 14 nonstick muffin cups with butter, and then mist with cooking spray.
• Whisk the batter for a few seconds and fill each prepared muffin cup 4/5 full. Sprinkle each evenly with blue cheese.
• Place the muffin pans into a cold oven with a drip pan set underneath. Set the heat to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Bake in the oven until popovers are well browned and fully puffed, about 30 to 35 minutes. Poke each popover with a knife to allow steam to escape. Serve hot.

CHIVE PEPPER POPOVERS RUSINOW

Steps:

• Generously grease six 2/3-cup popover cups or nine 1/2-cup muffin cups.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer combine milk, flour, oil, and salt and beat mixture on high speed 1 minute. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating 20 seconds after each addition, and beat in chives and pepper.
• Divide batter among cups and put in middle of a cold oven. Set oven at 425°F. and bake popovers 35 to 40 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.
