18 diagonal slices (1/2-inch-thick) baguette bread
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 head of curly endive or frisee leaves, separated into 2-inch strips

Mozzarella, Prosciutto, and Pesto Butter Tea Sandwiches image

These Italian-inspired tea sandwiches are easy-to-assemble and a sure-fire crowd pleaser.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick), room temperature
3/4 cup fresh basil leaves, packed (about 2 ounces), rinsed well, and dried
1/2 garlic clove
3 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon pine nuts
8 ounces sliced prosciutto
1 pound fresh mozzarella cheese
2 loaves rustic bread (about 2 pounds), cut into 48 1/4-inch-thick slices

Steps:

  • Make the pesto butter: Combine butter, basil, garlic, Parmesan, and pine nuts in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade; process until blended. Set aside. Lay prosciutto slices flat on a piece of plastic wrap, and cover with another piece of plastic wrap. Place in freezer for 10 minutes.
  • Remove prosciutto from freezer; use a 2 1/4-inch round cutter to cut into rounds. Slice mozzarella 1/8 inch thick, and cut into rounds. Cut bread using the same cutter, being sure to remove all the crust.
  • Spread a thin layer of pesto butter on two bread rounds. Layer one round with a round each of mozzarella and prosciutto; top with other bread round. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cover with damp paper towels until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh mozzarella, salty prosciutto, and flaky puff pastry are essential for the best turnovers. Look for ingredients that are fresh and flavorful, and avoid using pre-packaged or processed foods.
  • Be careful not to overstuff the turnovers: Too much filling will make them difficult to seal and can cause them to burst open during baking. Aim for about 2-3 tablespoons of filling per turnover.
  • Crimp the edges of the turnovers well: This will help to seal in the filling and prevent it from leaking out. Use a fork or your fingers to press the edges of the dough together firmly.
  • Bake the turnovers until they are golden brown: This will ensure that the dough is cooked through and the filling is hot and melted. Bake them for about 20-25 minutes, or until the desired doneness.
  • Serve the turnovers warm: These turnovers are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. Serve them with a side of marinara sauce or pesto for dipping.

Conclusion:

Mozzarella and prosciutto turnovers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and frozen for later. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect turnovers every time.
