Pigs In Pancetta Blankets Recipes

PIGS IN BLANKETS

Steps:

• Cut four 4-ounce bratwurst or knockwurst sausages into 6 rounds each. Stretch 1/2 pound pizza dough into a 6-by-12-inch rectangle; cut crosswise into 12 strips, then cut each strip in half. Wrap each strip around a sausage round and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet; brush the dough with beaten egg and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 400 degrees F until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with mustard.

PIGS IN BLANKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Measure 2 cups of flour into a bowl, add the salt and grated cheese and mix lightly with a fork. Pour the milk into a measuring cup to come up to 1-cup mark and then crack in the egg and add the oil. Beat to combine, then pour into the dry ingredients, forking to mix as you go. You may, at the end, feel the dough's either too dry or too damp: add either more milk or more flour and fork together again until you've got a soft dough that's not too sticky to be rolled out.
• Break the dough into 2 pieces and roll 1 piece on a lightly floured surface. Scone dough is a dream to work with; in fact, I find it deeply pleasurable. Just roll as clumsily and heavy handedly as you like: no harm will come to it. You want a thin, but not exaggeratedly so, rectangle. A square wouldn't be the end of the world either, so don't start getting out the geometry set: this is the roughest of instructions.
• Cut the dough into approximately 1 3/4-inch strips, and then cut each strip at approximately 2 1/2-inch intervals so that you end up with a collection of small, raggedy oblongs (I just cut each strip as I go, but it's probably more efficient to do the whole batch of dough at 1 time).
• Take a cocktail sausage and put it at 1 end of an oblong at a slight diagonal and then roll up, pressing on the infinitely compliant dough to squeeze it shut, and then place on a nonstick baking sheet, or 1 lined with parchment. Carry on until you've finished all your strips and then get to work with the remaining dough. Three baking sheets should do it.
• Now, dip a pastry brush into the beaten egg mixture and paint on the pastry for a golden glaze. Put in the oven and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, by which time they should be puffy and burnished. Remove from the oven and let cool a little before giving them to the children.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220˚C).
• Slice the puff pastry into 6 even rectangles. Place a slice of cheddar on top of each puff pastry piece.
• Place a hot dog on the cheddar, then roll it up.
• Slice each roll into 3 even pieces, and arrange the pieces evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper with a 1-inch (2-cm) gap between the pieces.
• Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown and flaky.
• Enjoy!

PIGS IN SPICY BLANKETS

Steps:

• Make the sausage: Toast the coriander, fennel and caraway seeds in a small skillet over high heat, stirring, until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Cool completely, then grind with a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder. Add the garlic, sage, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper and the red pepper flakes; grind to mix. Combine the spices with the ground pork in a bowl. Add the maple syrup and mix. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the dough: Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, Italian seasoning, mustard powder, baking soda, cayenne and sea salt in a food processor; pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse 5 to 6 times (for 4 to 5 seconds each time), until the mixture resembles cornmeal. Add the mozzarella and pulse 3 to 4 times, until well combined. Add the buttermilk and process until a ball forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Form the sausage mixture into 16 mini sausages, about 4 inches long (use about 2 tablespoons sausage for each). Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausages in 2 batches until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Cool on paper towels.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Sprinkle with flour, then gently pat out and roll into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. Trim the edges to make them even. Cut the rectangle in half crosswise, then cut each half into four 3-by-8-inch strips. Cut each strip in half diagonally to form 16 long triangles. Transfer to a baking sheet, cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place 1 sausage on the wide end of a dough triangle and roll up. Repeat with the remaining dough and sausages. Arrange the pigs in blankets 2 inches apart on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Brush the tops with the beaten egg and bake until golden, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the chipotle-agave mustard: Combine the agave, both mustards, the adobo sauce and a pinch of black pepper in a bowl. Serve the pigs in blankets with the mustard.

CARBONARA PIGS IN A BLANKET

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-low heat, cook the pancetta until cooked through but not too crispy, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper.
• Separate the dough into individual triangles. Cut each triangle lengthwise into 3 narrow triangles. Place a mini hot dog on the wide base end of a triangle. Starting at the base end of the triangle, roll up toward the pointed end, to wrap the hot dog. Place on the prepared sheet tray. Repeat with the remaining dough and mini hot dogs.
• In a small bowl, beat together the egg and Pecorino Romano cheese. Using a pastry brush, brush the pigs in a blanket with the egg mixture. Sprinkle with the diced pancetta.
• Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Arrange on a platter and serve with the Alfredo sauce for dipping.

PIGS IN PANCETTA BLANKETS

Steps:

• Wrap each mini sausage in a halved rasher of pancetta, then line them up in a shallow roasting tin or on a baking sheet. Can be prepared up to two days before, covered and kept chilled.
• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Drizzle the pigs in blankets with the sunflower oil and roast for 20 mins, then turn and roast for another 10 mins until the pancetta has crisped up.

CHIPOLATAS WRAPPED IN SAGE & PANCETTA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put 1 slice of pancetta on a chopping board and stretch out using the back of a knife. Put 1 sage leaf and 1 sausage on top, and roll the sausage up on the diagonal, covering all of it. Put on a lightly greased baking sheet and repeat with the remaining sausages. Can be prepared and chilled 2 days ahead. Cook for 20-25 mins until crisp and cooked through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Cut narrow strips of bacon that are just long enough to wrap once around the mini sausage/chipolata. Place seam-side down on a baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes until the bacon is crisp and slightly browned.
• For the dip mix the mayo and mustard together until smooth then sprinkle with the smoked paprika.
• Serve the sausages warm with the dip.

PIG IN THE BLANKETS

Steps:

• Divide sausage, forming 30 to 36 "Pigs".
• (About half the length of a hot dog) Do not roll in hands, form carefully with finger tips or fork.
• Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in margarine as for pie dough.
• Mix in milk, form into smooth ball.
• Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness, cut into strips about 3 1/2 inches wide. Wrap "pig" loosely in dough, overlapping on the bottom.
• Do not pinch ends shut. Prick top of each "pig" with a fork.
• Place on ungreased cookie sheets, bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees, then 15 minutes at 350 degrees until brown.
• May be frozen up to 4 months.

• Bake in preheated oven until biscuits are brown, about 10 to 15 minutes.
