Mushrooms cheese crostini is a simple recipe, so quick and tasty! I prepare this rich in flavor recipe as appetizer for dinners or parties. Yesterday I prepared these crostini with Ciabatta bread, Italian Fontina cheese and Shiitake mushrooms, but they are great with different mushrooms, and cheese, and bread as well!
- 1 ciabatta bread
- 2 lb (900 g) shiitake mushrooms
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 lb (220 g) Fontina cheese, or another cheese easy to melt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1/2 tsp white pepper
- to taste table salt
BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWERS
Clean the mushrooms and slice them into slices thick 1/4 inch. Peel and crush the garlic, then reduce it into pieces. Melt the butter into a pan over medium heat. When the butter is completely melted and light brown, add garlic and mushrooms. Stir fry over medium/high heat, stirring frequently until garlic and mushrooms are well roasted and golden brown, then add the thyme leaves, pour them into a bowl and let reach room temperature.
MUSHROOMS CHEESE CROSTINI
Preheat the oven on 400° F.
Combine the mushroom with white pepper, and shredded Italian Fontina. If you prefer, use another kind of cheese easy to melt into the oven. Cut the bread into big slices. When the oven has reached the right temperature, bake the bread slices until light crispy. Now, spread the mixture of cheese and mushrooms over the bread, and bake 10 minute. Finally, broil 2-3 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Serve the mushrooms cheese crostini just out from the oven, very hot!
