Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp butter
- salt
- 2 ozs Spelt flour
- 1 egg
- 1 pinch cream of tartar
- 1 Tbsp Rye groat
- 4 ozs Goat cheese
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp pink peppercorns
- 1 Orange
- 1 lemon
- 2 Tbsps olive oil
- peppers
- 2 large Endive (about 14 oz)
- 1 oz lamb's lettuce
Preparation steps
Bring the butter and approximately 4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons of water to a boil in a pot. Remove pan from heat. Add the salt and spelt flour and stir once with a wooden spoon.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture pulls away from side of pan and forms a dough.
Transfer dough to a mixing bowl. Add egg and beat with a hand mixer until combined. Sprinkle in the cream of tartar and beat briefly.
Place the rye meal on a plate. Using 2 tablespoons dipped in cold water, form the dough into 16 small ovals. Roll to coat in the rye.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the dough balls on the baking sheet and bake on the middle rack of a preheated oven at 400°F until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool.
Meanwhile, whisk together the goat cheese and honey in a bowl.
Crush half of the peppercorns in a mortar and add to the goat-cheese mixture along wtih 1 tablespoon cold water. Season with salt and refrigerate until ready to use.
Squeeze out juice from the orange and lemon. Whisk together 4 tablespoons of orange juice, 1-2 teaspoons lemon juice and the olive oil in a small bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper.
Clean the endive and lamb's lettuce and drain. Cut the endive in half lengthwise, remove core and cut the leaves crosswise into thin strips.
Separate lamb's lettuce leaves and place in a salad bowl with the endive. Toss with the dressing.
Cut the cooled puffs in half horizontally with kitchen shears and top bottom halves with the cheese filling, then replace top halves. Divide salad among plates, top each with 3 puffs, sprinkle with remaining peppercorns and serve.
