Antipasti I: Marinated Veggies

Die deutsche Übersetzung findet ihr unter dem englischen Rezept!





We had an Italian themed dinner party last week and made a nice little plate of antipasti as appetizers. It's June, so we wanted to stick to as many cold dishes as possible. Antipasti proved to be easily prepared in advance and a great way to start out the dinner. There are three main components to the dish on the picture above: (1) Marinated veggies, (2) baked bellpeppers with shaved almonds, and (3) the tomato that's filled with pesto cream cheese. I'll explain how they were made in the following blog posts.




So here is how you can make the marinated veggies:
For this starter plate for six people (each person got their own ;) No sharing necessary), I used the following:

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium eggplant
  • 2 small zucchinis
  • 250g of meadow mushrooms 
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 150ml olive oil (plus some for frying)
  • 1½ tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
  • some fresh basil, thyme, and rosemary
  • salt
