It has been a protracted winter, although fairly gentle, so I mustn’t complain, I’m actually trying ahead to spring. Over the vacations I used to be so busy cooking for household, that I by no means had the time to cease and take any pictures. I made a number of new appetizers and snacks for my household that obtained rave opinions, together with this flavorful bruschetta.
I’m an enormous fan of bruschetta as it’s all the time a simple, fast to assemble snack or appetizer. If I need to make an extraordinary mid-week meal extra memorable, I’ll usually add a simple appetizer to the menu. Bruschetta can also be a simple deal with to supply surprising company who cease by for a glass of wine or to serve to a big group at a get-together.
You possibly can high bruschetta with a limiteless variety of toppings from a easy drizzle of wonderful additional virgin olive oil, to a multi-ingredient topping similar to this one. I assembled this appetizer after having some leftover roasted Brussels sprouts from dinner the night time earlier than, and a few creamy burrata cheese in my fridge.
Our native grocery retailer has a big number of scrumptious Italian cheese, together with a available number of buffalo mozzarella and burrata. As a substitute of the burrata, if not accessible in your space, you could possibly use a top quality contemporary mozzarella and even creamy goat cheese.
After topping my toasted bread slices with sliced burrata, then slices of Brussels sprouts, I completed the bruschetta with some chopped hazelnuts, some chopped black peppers and a drizzle of chestnut honey. It is a full-flavored, uniquely flavored bruschetta that everybody enjoys.
Buon Appetito!
