dressing
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

this is in answer to the cook that didn't know what to do with the dressing, I have just watched the show and he drizzles the... dressing over the antipasto after he arranged on the plate.Read more

Typical Italian deli tray
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Its not too hard to figure out where to put the chili vinaigrette. Not on the crackers or bread which would become soggy!... Obviously it only goes on the veggies. In the episode he drizzled it over the separate plate that held the pickles, onions, olives, artichokes, tomatoes. Personally I think its overkill but I suppose it does freshen up an otherwise typical deli tray.Read more

Is this recipe complete?
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Sorry, but I must have missed a chapter. I didn't see Michael make this, and the recipe doesn't say what to do with the... vinaigrette once you make it. (It does say "toss to coat," but not WHAT is supposed to be coated.) Can anyone enlighten me, please? I can't imagine adding the vinaigrette to the pickles, for example. Generally, I really like Michael's recipes, but this one has me baffled.Read more

A Nice Change From the Usual Trays
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for my husband's birthday party and it was wonderful. I made it my own in a lot of ways, but it was still good... and the idea of putting artichoke hearts on a platter as if they were olives was awesome. This is a nice alternate from the boring pre-made deli trays from the store.Read more
