Use pepper relish to add sweet-savory punch and a pretty glaze.

Serving 6-8 person

Ingredients

1/2 cup soft, fresh breadcrumbs

1/4 cup spicy-hot vegetable juice

1/4 cup buttermilk

1 cup minced sweet onion (about 1 medium)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 3/4 pounds ground round

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil

1 large egg, lightly beaten

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 cup hot pepper relish, divided

Garnish: fresh basil 

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 450°. Stir together first 3 ingredients; let stand 5 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, sauté onion in hot oil in a medium-size nonstick skillet over medium heat 5 minutes or just until tender.

3. Stir together bread mixture, onion, ground beef, next 5 ingredients, and 2 Tbsp. relish just until blended.

4. Shape into 8 loaves (about 1/2 cup each); place in cups of a lightly greased 8-cup mini loaf pan. (Each cup will be about 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches. Or arrange on a lightly greased wire rack in a foil-lined jelly-roll pan.)

5. Bake at 450° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 155°, brushing with 1/3 cup relish during last 10 minutes of baking. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes. Serve with remaining relish.
