Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 12 scones

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 whole head garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk, plus 1 to 2 tablespoons if needed
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting work surface
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 scallions, green parts only, thinly sliced
Cheesy Herb Spread, recipe follows
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, softened
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
1/4 cup chopped mixed herbs (parsley, chives, tarragon, dill)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F; position a rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat with cooking spray; set aside.
  • With a serrated knife, cut the top quarter off the garlic head to expose the tops of the cloves. Place the garlic, cut side up, on a sheet of foil large enough to enclose it; drizzle with olive oil. Close the foil completely around garlic, crimping the sides and top so no steam can escape. Roast the garlic in the oven until softened and cooked through, about 30 minutes. Carefully remove the garlic from the foil and, squeezing from the bottom, release the roasted cloves into a medium bowl. Add the eggs and milk, stir to combine, and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk to combine the flour, baking powder, pepper and salt. Use a pastry blender, two knives or your fingers to combine the butter to make the mixture crumbly.
  • Add the wet garlic mixture to the dry flour mixture and gently stir. Add the scallions; gently combine to evenly distribute. If the dough seems too dry, add more milk, a tablespoon at a time.
  • Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface. With your hands, pat into a 6-by-9-inch rectangle. Cut into 6 squares and then cut the squares in half diagonally. Place the scones on prepared baking sheet, spaced 1-inch apart.
  • Bake until golden and cooked through, 25 minutes. Serve with the Cheesy Herb Spread.
  • Place the cream cheese, Gorgonzola, butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and cayenne in a food processor and pulse until well blended. Add the herbs and pulse until combined. (Alternatively, mix all ingredients with a spoon in a large bowl until combined.) Chill in refrigerator until ready to use.

CHARRED SCALLION DIP WITH LEMON AND HERBS



Charred Scallion Dip With Lemon and Herbs image

This creamy scallion dip could be the cooler cousin of ranch dressing or sour cream and onion dip. Grilled scallions add smokiness, while fresh chives and raw scallions lend brightness to the tangy, herb-flecked dip. If you don't have a grill or grill pan, you can broil the scallions in your oven. Once assembled, the dip benefits from chilling to round out the flavors. At least an hour works, but it's better after a day. It needs nothing more than potato chips alongside, but it's also great with crudités, crackers, grilled vegetables, fried chicken or slathered on sandwiches.

Time 20m

Yield 1 1/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 scallions, roots and tops trimmed
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill, or 1 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil or other neutral oil
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sour cream or Greek yogurt
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a grill or a grill pan over high.
  • As pan heats up, prepare the scallion-herb mixture: Halve 2 scallions lengthwise, then slice very thinly crosswise. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in chives and dill, if using. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • On a baking sheet, toss remaining 10 scallions with the canola oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Working in batches if necessary, grill the scallions over high heat, turning occasionally, until deeply grill-marked and slightly softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool.
  • While the scallions cool, add the sour cream, cream cheese, lemon zest and juice, onion and garlic powders, and sugar to the medium bowl with the scallion-herb mixture.
  • Thinly slice the grilled scallions, then add to the sour cream mixture and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour or ideally 1 day. (The flavor will deepen as it sits.) To serve, drizzle with olive oil. Serve with potato chips for dipping.

SCALLION CREAM CHEESE, BAGEL SHOP STYLE



Scallion Cream Cheese, Bagel Shop Style image

This recipe for a loftier version of cream cheese is also a formula for any number of dips and spreads. Instead of scallions, you might add horseradish, sriracha, toasted walnuts, blue cheese crumbles, maple syrup or honey. When shopping for cream cheese, choose one with the shortest list of ingredients; anything besides cream, milk, and salt is a filler or a preservative. But even if you start with less-than-perfect cream cheese from the supermarket, whipping it in a stand mixer and adding heavy cream to loosen the mixture will produce a smooth, fluffy spread. Sour cream would work just as well as heavy cream. It's best to make this just before serving - at Baz Bagel & Restaurant in Little Italy, they make it three times a day to preserve the fresh taste - but it also lasts well in the refrigerator.

SCALLION CREAM CHEESE



Scallion Cream Cheese image

I used to buy the little 2 ounce cups of this from the bagel place I go to on my way to work. Now, I make it myself and bring my own bagels from home, to save money, and it saves a stop on the commute...gets me in the office earlier and OUT earlier! This stuff keeps well in the fridge for days but I just store mine in the fridge at work. I mark it, in magic marker "JUDY" and everyone know to leave it alone or incur the wrath of the queen.
