How to Make Anchovy Rolls
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a bowl, mash 1/4 cup of anchovy fillets with 2 tablespoons of crème fraîche until smooth.
- Thinly slice 1 medium leek (about 1 cup sliced).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 pound of pizza dough into a 12x18 inch rectangle.
- Spread the anchovy-crème fraîche mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border on all sides.
- Sprinkle the sliced leeks evenly over the anchovy mixture.
- Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log, like a strudel.
- Place the roll seam-down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before slicing into 1-inch pinwheels.
- Serve immediately. Optional: Add 1/4 cup golden raisins to the anchovy mixture for extra sweetness.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
