  • 2 hard-cooked eggs
  • Parsley vinaigrette:
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • salt, freshly ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons each; hazelnut oil, vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Remove dark green ends of leeks and discard. Slit each leek lengthwise twice, beginning halfway through center of white part and slitting upward in direction of green tops. Dip repeatedly in a sinkful of cold water to remove any sand. Cut off roots. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook leeks, uncovered, over medium heat about 10 minutes or until tender. Drain thoroughly. Cut in two or three pieces crosswise. Arrange on a platter reconstructing each leek and arranging so all point in the same direction.

Cut hard-cooked eggs in half and remove yolks. Chop egg whites separately from yolks. In small bowl, stir vinegar with salt and pepper, and whisk in oil. Add parsley, taste and adjust seasoning. To serve, spoon enough dressing over leeks to moisten them. Sprinkle egg whites in a row across their bases and then a row of hazelnuts next to the whites, then a row of chopped yolks. Leave top ends of leeks showing. Serve remaining dressing separately.

 

Oregon Hazelnut Broccoli
Yield: 6 servings
  • 2 (10 oz.) packages frozen, chopped broccoli or 1-1/2 lbs. fresh

  • 1-1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup water

  • 1 cup roasted and coarsely chopped Oregon hazelnuts

Cook broccoli until tender, drain thoroughly; put into a buttered 1-1/2 quart casserole. In a saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter, blend in flour and chicken stock base to make a smooth paste. Gradually add milk and cook, stirring frequently until thick and smooth. Mix into broccoli. Heat water and remaining 1/4 cup butter until butter melts; pour over stuffing mix and hazelnuts and toss. Top broccoli with hazelnut mixture. Bake uncovered at 400 for 20 minutes.

 

Oregon Hazelnut Stuffed Artichokes
Yield: 4 servings

  • 1/4 cup chopped pimiento-stuffed olives
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed

Wash artichokes. Cut off stems at base and remove small bottom leaves. Trim tips of leaves and cut off about 1 inch from top of artichokes. Combine hazelnuts, crumbs, olives, garlic and butter; stir with a tossing motion to coat mixture with the butter. Spoon between leaves of artichokes. Stand them upright in deep saucepan large enough to hold snugly. Add 1" boiling water and salt. (Pour water around not over artichokes.) Cover and boil gently 35 to 45 minutes, or until base of artichokes can be pierced easily with a fork. Add more boiling water, if needed. Serve with additional melted butter, if desired.
