TOP 10: Must-try Crostini, Toasts and Tartines!

July 24, 2016 ,

What’s a crostini? You’ve definitely tried one, whether you realised it or not. It’s simply an open faced sandwich on toasted bread. Baguettes and country-style breads are great choices for bases, since they toast nicely and hold up to weight, while being able to soak up flavours. Soft cheeses and bold spreads form the base, with fresh veggies and fruits rounding everything out. We invite you to make these 10 must-try crostini and enjoy them with your loved ones.

#10 – Leek and Tomato with Brie

Leek is an under utilized member of the onion family. They can seem a bit scary in the supermarket, with their wide stalks and somewhat tough, leathery leaves, but they really aren’t that difficult to work with. Leek has a much milder, sweeter flavour than most onions, and goes well with cheeses and creamy soups. This crostini is an excellent way to get some leek into your regular routine.

There is something absolutely irresistible about perfectly sautéed mushrooms. They carry lots of ‘umami‘ flavour, which is the flavour responsible for the full, meaty flavour that you find in savoury dishes. Goat cheese also makes a perfect companion, since it’s sharp and salty with a great tang. If you aren’t already in love with chevre, this is the way to fall for it!
