Salsa Di Parmigiano (Parmesan Dip) image

This recipe is courtesy of Michael Chiarello on the Food Network. This is simple to make and yummy to eat. It's great on crostini and bruschetta and I'm sure on or in many other foods! Note: this dip is a little oily and when it sits, has oil that settles on the top--it's supposed to do that.

This stuff is addicting!! I serve salsa with broken pieces of bread or crackers. You may toss it with pasta or put on a salad, the possibilities are endless. I'm often asked to make it for parties because most people just adore this dip. -ADDED: I just recently discovered that this is Michael Chiarello's recipe & here all this time I thought my mother in law was a genius for coming up with this wonderful recipe.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
2 cups heavy cream
4 eggs
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Salt
1 pinch cayenne
1 jar piquillo peppers, julienned
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
2 cups arugula or mesclun
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 to 4 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped chives
Special equipment: 8 (6-ounce) ramekins or disposable aluminum cups

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Spray the ramekins or disposable aluminum cups with nonstick spray.
  • To a medium bowl, add the heavy cream, eggs and Parmigiano and whisk to combine. Season with salt and cayenne. Divide the egg, cream, cheese mixture between the ramekins. Place the filled ramekins in a baking dish and fill halfway with hot tap water. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on racks.
  • Place the cooled sformato in a warm oven for 10 minutes to reheat.
  • While the sformato is reheating toss the peppers and almonds with the greens and a sprinkle of oil, vinegar and salt. Arrange some of the pepper mixture on individual serving plates. Unmold the sformati on the serving plate and arrange the peppers against the sformato. Drizzle with olive oil.

Tips:

  • Use best quality ingredients: Use high-quality cheese, milk and butter for best flavors.
  • Choose right cheese: Parmigiano-Reggiano is best but Grana Padano is good substitute.
  • Use Freshly Grated Cheese: Pre-grated cheese contains cellulose, which can make sauce grainy.
  • Cook Sauce Slowly: Cook sauce over low heat, stirring constantly, to prevent scorching and ensure smooth consistency.
  • Add Herbs and Spices To Taste: Experiment with different herbs and spices, such as nutmeg, black pepper, or chili flakes, to create variations in flavor.
  • Make Ahead: Sauce can be made ahead and stored in refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Serve Warm or Cold: Sauce is delicious served warm over pasta or vegetables, or chilled as dip for bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

With its rich, cheesy flavor and versatile applications, Salsa di Parmigiano is a must-try sauce for any home cook. Whether you're using it as a pasta sauce, dip, or spread, this simple yet delicious sauce is sure to impress.
