CAPRESE CROSTINI (CANAPES)
Steps:
- Slice bread and brush both sides lightly with extra virgin olive oil. Bake 5 minutes at 350˚F to lightly toast it (toasting the bread keeps the bread from getting moist from the cheese).
- Top with a slice of mozzarella and a slice of tomato. Sprinkle the tops with salt and pepper and bake at 350˚F for 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
- A few minutes before the crostini are finished baking, in a small ramekin, mix together 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar and 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil until well combined. Toss in the sliced fresh basil and stir gently. Top each crostini with the marinated basil.
MOZZARELLA CAPRESE CROSTINI
Steps:
- Begin by diagonally slicing the baguette. Then, lay the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the baking sheet on the top rack of your oven and broil the bread 4-5 minutes until it is golden brown. Set aside to cool.
- In a small bowl, gently toss together the cherry tomatoes, basil, olive oil, and a bit of salt and pepper.
- To finish, layer the ingredients on the toast. Begin with mozzarella, then add tomatoes, and finally, drizzle with balsamic glaze.
CROSTINI ALLA CAPRESE
Crostini are made from thinly sliced Italian or French bread and lightly toasted. These are topped with a version of Caprese Salad (mozzarella, fresh basil, tomato). These can be served like a canape or threaded onto small skewers. You should be able to find the marinated mozzarella balls in the deli department. If not, use plain mozzarella balls rolled in oregano flakes or small pieces of mozzarella.
