Tartine Book Pdf

Theres bread, there's toast, sandwiches, fillings, bruschetta, and open-faced toasty wonders piled high with endless ingredients. Are they all just simple sandwich variations, with bread serving as the base or wrapping? Maybe, but not if you give it an intriguing French name like tartine. Suddenly, the concept of crispy bread hosting all kinds of deliciousness gets elevated to the realm of culinary art or haute cuisine.

But perching on a fancy plate, served with Parisian flair, doesn't explain how tartines deserve such exclusivity and devotion. Entire eateries and bakeries get named after or devoted to the form, from La Tartine in Paris to Tartine Bakery in San Francisco. At its core, a tartine is indeed just an open-faced sandwich, meaning a single slice of bread with toppings. It's the imaginative subtleties of creating one that distinguishes it from ordinary lunch or breakfast fare.

From the type of bread to how it's toasted, which edibles are included, and when it's eaten, the art of tartine building is yours to master. Personalizing per your own taste proclivities is even better.

What's known as artisan breads are generally ideal for French-style tartines, evidenced by cookbooks such as "Tartine" by author and baker Chad Robertson, who co-owns Tartine Bakery in San Francisco. A sourdough rye bread works well for Scandinavian and other regional tartine specialties, such as the European Smrrebrd, a Danish version of tartines. It's important that the bread holds up well under the weight of elaborate tartine construction and eating. Toasting the bread helps guard against sogginess when the ingredients are artfully placed into position.

However, a morning tartineoften uses a slightly softer bread such as challah, brioche, or various white breads. That's because breakfast tartines can be as simple as toasted bread slices with butter, served with jam or fruit spreads, requiring less bulk than afternoon or evening ones. The softer, more absorbent breads also complement the morning practice of tartine dipping in which the tartine gets dunked into toasty hot chocolate, tea, or steaming coffee drinks.

Since a tartine is meant to be a meal in itself, it can be layered high with all kinds of ingredients in different shapes, sizes, and textures. A prosciutto and cucumber tartine, for example, has silky strips of meat and crunchy rounds of vegetables, which are delicious together but challenging to neatly nibble. The fork and knife technique prevents the toppings from sliding off, and allows you to build more manageable bite-sized portions.

This gravlax tartine is my copycat recipe of the beautiful and delicious Smoked Salmon Tartine from Tartine Bakery. Though I never pegged myself as a fish-for-breakfast gal, the combination of savory, rich salmon, hearty toasted bread and bright, crunchy, acidic onions won me over.

If you get a chance, stop by a Tartine location in either Northern or Southern California. You will fall in love with their spectacular breads and baked goods. Because of my mild obsession with this menu item, I often have all of these ingredients on hand.

This tartine is super easy to make. Pickle the onions and mustard seeds, then it's really just assembly. First toast bread, then add cream cheese, salmon, and an arrangement of colorful onion, lemon and mustard seeds.

You can also make some roasted cherry tomatoes on the vine, which are great paired with almond pesto. I have always been a big proponent of tomatoes with breakfast. If you've never tried it, I definitely recommend the roasted cherry tomatoes linked below.

Hi, I'm Gen! Welcome to Two Cloves Kitchen. I am a professional chef, lifelong recipe creator, writer, and editor. As a native Californian and a major food lover, I am constantly developing new California-inspired dishes with bold flavor to share with you here on the site.

Shape the dough as directed in the tartine country bread recipe. Let rest on a work surface for 30 minutes. Then cut the potatoes into thin, translucent slices. Place in a colander and toss with salt. Let stand for 20 or so minutes, and the potatoes will leech out copious amounts of water. Sponge it up, let it drip through the colander, and then toss the potato slices with pepper, olive oil, and thyme.

Distribute the potatoes over the surface of the dough. Bake for 15 minutes, then rotate the pan so it can bake evenly. Continue until the potatoes are golden brown, 20-25 minutes total. Remove from the oven and top with shaved cheese. Cut and serve warm. Yum. I served this bread for a Calvary Episcopal Potluck, and it disappeared faster than summer in Minnesota.

Friends, I introduce to you another simple and classic dish that you will love to enjoy in the mornings or on warm days. In this post, I am showing you how to make a simple Smoked Salmon Tartine, that boast lemon creme friache, capers, and pickled onion. I believe that I truly enjoy this tartine because it is basically the lighter version of a bagel and lox. It gives your a nice smoky saltiness that is irresistible.

Pro Tip: When purchasing your smoked salmon, ask your local seafood department for smoked salmon trimmings. They tend to be thicker slices and they are less expensive than the smoked salmon packages.

In a lunch rut? Tired of tuna? Sick of sandwiches? Mix it up a bit with this ultra flavorful chicken salad tartine, topped with fresh microgreens and crispy chicken skins made from the skin of the rotisserie chicken.

You could certainly enjoy this chicken salad on its own or as a two-sliced sandwich, but we love serving it as an open faced tartine on a slice of grilled crusty bread (preferably homemade sourdough if you happen to have a loaf handy!)

Rather than wasting the flavorful goodness of the rotisserie chicken skin, we sliced it into thin strips and then baked it until the strips are crispy and golden brown. Crumbled atop the creamy chicken salad, they provide the perfect amount of textural contrast and pop of intense chicken flavor.

Step 1: Mix the salt and pepper together and set aside. Now, start by mashing your avocado. Add fresh avocado to a small bowl with half of the lemon juice and half of the salt and pepper.

Tartines can be served either hot or cold, depending on the ingredients used. Some are enjoyed warm, with melted cheese or grilled toppings, while others, like avocado tartines, are served at room temperature or chilled.

This tartine is based on one I would order at Le Pain Quotidien while in grad school. They no longer offer it on their menu so I have fun recreating it at home with sharp cheddar and my Curry Mustard, along with seasonal fruits (i.e. sliced peaches, apples, avocado) and herbs. I like adding a little sev on top for crunch.

Many French people start their day with a tartine for breakfast. A section of crusty baguette cut into, lengthwise. A generous spread of butter and a dollop of jam. I love Bonne Maman peach jam but you can also use any variety of store bought or homemade jams.

A Fig and Prosciutto Tartine makes for a perfect light lunch. Take a slice of bread, top with some fresh marscapone, salty prosciutto and some fresh figs and voila! you have a delicious lunch. Accompany with a green salad topped with balsamic vinegar and olive oil and you would swear you have just lunched in your favorite French bistro.

Take a piece of bread. You can refer to one of my most popular posts Baking Baguettes for Beginners to make your own crusty French Baguette. You can also use a slice of sourdough or rustic bread (pain rustique) as it is referred to in France.

Asparagus tartine with ricotta and prosciutto! This asparagus tartine recipe is easy, simple and great for Spring, served with whipped ricotta (with tons of herbs) and prosciutto! I am fully in Spring mode, and this tartine is the perfect breakfast, or appetizer to serve for any Spring holiday.

Asparagus: My eyes immediately gravitate towards asparagus when it turns Spring. We are simple trimming and cooking the asparagus in a pan with salt, pepper, olive oil and a dash of balsamic vinegar.

Trim off the ends of your asparagus, and cut in half on a bias. In a cast iron skillet, or pan on the stovetop, heat with olive oil. Add in your asparagus and season with salt, pepper and olive oil. Saute and cook until vibrant green, and your asparagus are tender, but not too tender and mushy, with a little bite, about 10-12 minutes.
