The dough is a breeze to make, slightly sweetened with sugar and enriched with melted butter and egg. I used a mixture of dark chocolate, roasted peanuts and butter for the filling. You can replace peanuts with other nuts or simply use chunky peanut butter with cinnamon chips. Nutella and chopped hazelnuts would be great as the filling too. The bread is best enjoyed warm, while the chocolate still warm and fluid, but it still tastes wonderful after it cools.

DoughFilling & Topping
  • 180 ml Wholemilk, lukewarm
  • 25 g Fresh yeast
  • 1 Egg, medium
  • 35 g Butter, melted
  • 35 g Sugar

  • 370 g All-purpose flour
  • 1/3 tsp Salt
  • 80 g Butter, melted
  • 150 g Salted roasted peanuts, finely chopped
  • 30 g Butter, cut into small pieces
  • 2 tbsp Brown sugar
  • 100 g Dark chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)
  1. Combine milk and yeast, stir and set aside at room temperature for 10 minutes, untill is gets foamy.
  2. In the bowl of your stand mixer, add in egg, melted butter, sugar, scraped vanilla seeds and yeast/milk mixture. Stir on slow speed to combine. Add in flour and salt and beat at slow speed for 5 minutes until the dough comes together. Increase the speed and knead until dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Transfer to a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it proof at room temperature, until it almost doubles its size.
  4. Grease and line a 30x11cm loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  5. Lightly flour a work surface and roll out the dough into 50x30cm / 20x12 inch rectangle. Brush the rectangle with melted butter. Sprinkle the chopped peanuts and chocolate over.
  6. Using a very sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice the dough vertically into 6 equal sized strips from top to bottom. Stack 6 strips on top of each other, and cut into 6 sections. Place them accordion like into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Cover the loaf pan with a clean kitchen towel, and allow to rise again in a warm place for 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
  8. Place the butter pieces on the top and sprinkle the brown sugar over. Bake the dough for 32-40 minutes in the middle of or until a deep golden brown. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes then place on cooling rack to cool completely.

Beef Carpaccio with Truffle and Parmigiano-Reggiano

Saturday, May 01, 2021

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Carpaccio is a traditional Italian gourmet appetizer consisting of raw beef sliced paper-thin, drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice. The most commonly used cut for carpaccio is the centre of the fillet, but sirloin works just as fine.
Carpaccio was invented in the 1950s by Giuseppe Cipriani from Harry's Bar in Venice and it soon became very popular. It was named after Venetian painter Vittorio Carpaccio, known for the characteristic red and white tones of his work.
This carpaccio recipe with true 30-month aged Parmigiano-Reggiano and truffle practically melts in your mouth and is absolutely packed with flavour! A perfect starter to start your five star meal.

  • 120-150 g Beef fillet, organic and grass-fed
  • A handful of arugula
  • Truffle slices soaked in olive oil
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Lemon zest
  • Celtic grey salt
  • Black peppercorns
  • Pink peppercorns
  • A few sprigs of fresh thyme, optional
  1. Wrap the beef in a plastic film and freeze for 30 minutes or until firm.This will make the beef easier to slice.
  2. Rinse arugula and spin dry. Brush 2-3 plates with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  3. To make carpaccio, remove the plastic wrap from the beef. Using a sharp knife, cut thin slices across the grain of the beef. Place each slice between two sheets of plastic wrap and, using a rolling pin, flatten the beef until almost paper-thin.
  4. Divide carpaccio slices in a single layer, slightly overlapping, on the plates. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and season with lemon zest, salt and peppers.
  5. Place arugula on the carpaccio slices. Shave Parmigiano-Reggiano over the carpaccio and top with a few slices of truffle. Garnish with fresh thyme if using and serve immediately.
