The recipe was born by chance, by now you all know my great passion for the Aperitif, every occasion is good to invent new treats that enrich this section! In this case I have chosen to make some delicious ones salty pastries.

It's about a very easy preparation And versatile! For the base I chose rustic shortcrust pastry, which is prepared in a very short time! but nothing prevents you from preparing the baskets of puff pastry for speed up further the preparation; or opt for the classic shortcrust pastry, which you can also prepare with oil; or the Crazy Pasta Vegan. A once the shells are made, you can realize the fillings of your choice! In the ingredients you will find many solutions.

Perfect like finger food, to serve as starter, apericene, buffet. They can't miss for birthday parties, party and of course Christmas e New Year's together with the classic salmon canapes, pretzels, puff pastry rolls! Try them soon they will literally be snapped up!

Method

How to make savory baskets

First of all, prepare the dough, following the instructions found in the article: Savory shortcrust pastry

Then place in the fridge for 30 minutes, roll out to a thickness of 4 mm and line the previously greased and floured molds.

Finally, bake in a preheated oven at 180 ° for about 15 minutes until they brown on the surface.

Meanwhile, prepare the mousse various flavors.

Divide the perfectly drained ricotta in a cloth into 4 equal parts.

In one part add the pesto. If necessary, add 1 tablespoon more.

In another part, blend together with the cooked ham

Then blend another part together with the tuna

Mix the last part with the finely chopped aromatic herbs:

Finally, keep the mousses in the fridge until use.

Remove the baskets from the oven, remove them from the molds, let them cool perfectly. Stuff the various shells with the different mousses.

Then I used classic flower sac a poche for the tuna mousse (one part I decorated with olives)

for the others I used the Wilton 1A smooth and wide nozzle and decorated the pesto mousse with cherry tomatoes.

Once ready, you can keep them in the fridge until ready to serve!

here are the Savory baskets in all their glory!
