Disney’s Festival of the Arts Mediterranean Flatbread Recipe: The Fennel Cream<\/h3>\n
\"Disney's
The fennel cream replaces the cheese in this flatbread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Make the fennel cream the day ahead to make the Mediterranean Flatbread a weeknight breeze.\u00a0 Starting with one half of a fennel bulb your remove any bruised outer leaves. Then remove the hard core of the bulb.\u00a0 Roughly chop the fennel and and half a medium shallot.\u00a0 \u00a0Add the chopped veggies into a food processor and pulse until very finely minced.\u00a0 Finely minced is important as a larger mince will clog a squeeze bottle or even a plastic bag later.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Keep pulsing until the fennel is finely minced. When applying the cream later this will be essential.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Next, heat a melt a half teaspoon of\u00a0 butter over medium heat in a heavy saucepan. Add the minced vegetables and cook until translucent and tender. Do not brown the veggies. Then, remove vegetables to a bowl and set aside.\u00a0\u00a0In same pan, melt an additional tablespoon of butter. Mix in a half tablespoon of flour to form a roux and cook until just barely golden. Do not brown.<\/p>\n

Whisk in a quarter cup of white wine.\u00a0 Continue whisking until the roux is completely incorporated into the liquid and no lumps remain. Add one cup of sour cream cream and one half tablespoon of cream cheese.\u00a0 Stir until the cream cheese has melted thoroughly into the sauce.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
When making the roux and adding the wine the sauce should be smooth and free of lumps.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Finally, return cooked vegetables to the pot and fold them into the cream sauce.\u00a0\u00a0Season to taste with salt and white pepper.\u00a0 Simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes or until the flavors have combined and the sauce is the desired consistency.\u00a0 It should be very thick.\u00a0 Refrigerate until needed.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Simmer the Fennel Cream until the sauce is thick enough to be piped onto the flatbread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Assembling Disney’s Festival of the Arts Mediterranean Flatbread<\/h3>\n

We purchased all the items we needed for the flatbread from a local grocery store with an exception of the Za’atar.\u00a0 Za’atar is a Mediterranean spice mixture that is becoming more popular in the United States.\u00a0 If it’s not available in your market you can purchase it online.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Everything you need for the Mediterranean Flatbread can be purchased. We chose naan bread as a base but lavash bread can also be used.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Bottled pesto, roasted peppers, artichoke hearts and sun dried tomatoes simplify this dish.\u00a0 \u00a0To start, preheat the oven to 375.\u00a0 Put a pizza stone into the oven if you have one.\u00a0 Then mix six tablespoons of pizza with two of the za’atar.\u00a0\u00a0Spread the za\u2019atar mixture over the naan bread.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Spread the za’atar pesto over the bottom of the flatbread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Place the remaining ingredients except the fennel cream atop the bread.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Spread the topping ingredients over the top of the flatbread in any combination you’d like.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Place the naan bread directly onto the pizza stone (if available) or onto a cookie sheet. Cook for 10 minutes or until the edges begin to crisp.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
A pizza stone will help crisp the bottom of the flatbread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Pipe or drizzle the fennel cream over the flat bread.\u00a0 Cut into three pieces and serve.<\/p>\n

\"Disney's
Win one and Lose one. my piping improved the second night but an interruption while cooking resulted in overcooked flatbread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Adjustments<\/h3>\n

We are a lactose free house and this recipe adjusts well.\u00a0 Lactose free butter and sour cream were used without any impact to the flavor.<\/p>\n
