Follow on Google News | Bar Bambino Offers Original Holiday Side DishesWhetting the appetite with a creative riff on the traditional, Bar Bambino Chef Lizzie Binder offers two original side dishes for holiday dining: Potato and Walnut Salad & Farro Salad with Cinnamon
Cheers, Proprietor Christopher Losa and Executive Chef Lizzie Binder Media contact: press@barbambino.com 415.701.9463 Potato and Walnut Salad Serves 4 - 6 Ingredients: 1 lb russian fingerling potatoes 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1 medium onion, finely diced 1 cup shelled walnuts, toasted 2 cloves garlic, peeled 1/4 cup chopped dill and parsley 2 tbsp red wine vinegar salt and freshly ground black pepper additional chopped parsley and crushed toasted walnuts for garnish Method: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1+ Tbs of salt. Add potatoes and boil until tender. Meanwhile, saute the onion lightly in extra virgin olive oil until translucent. In a food processor, finely grind the walnuts, garlic, salt and ground black pepper. Remove to a large bowl and stir in the herbs and vinegar. Add the cooked onion and stir to integrate. While the potatoes are still warm, peel them and slice into 1/4 inch rings. Add potatoes to the nut mixture and toss thoroughly (the potatoes will begin to break up slightly). Garnish with chopped parsley and crushed walnuts. Serve at room temperature. Farro Salad With Cinnamon Serves 4 - 6 Ingredients: 1 lb farro 2 pieces cinnamon bark, toasted 2 cloves, toasted and finely ground 1 tsp caraway seeds, toasted 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil 1 tbsp orange juice 1 tsp orange zest, remove zest from orange with a microplane salt and freshly ground black pepper Method: Bring approximately 6 cups of salted water and the cinnamon bark to a boil. Add the farro and simmer for 15 minutes, until tender, but chewy. Be careful not to over cook, the grains should hold their shape. Drain and set the farro and cinnamon bark aside. In a large bowl combine the orange zest, ground cloves, caraway seeds and farro. Dress with the orange juice and extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Toss together well. Add cinnamon bark to the salad to allow for further infusion. Remove after the salad is scented to your taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.
