GARLIC HERB BUTTER CROSTINI



Garlic Herb Butter Crostini image

This is my absolute favorite crostini! If you've never cooked with anchovies before, don't worry, they don't taste "fishy" at all and they totally dissolve in the butter. In fact, when I serve this I never tell people that there are anchovies in it. If anyone asks, I just say that I use garlic and herbs and my 'secret ingredient'. So far no one has guessed my secret ingredient and everyone loves the crostini. Based on a recipie by Giada De Laurentiis.

Yield Makes 18

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
2 anchovy fillets, drained, chopped
1 tablespoon whole milk
18 1/2-inch-thick slices crusty bread or baguette
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 pound fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced, patted dry

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Combine butter, anchovies, and milk in small saucepan over low heat. Cook until anchovies dissolve, mashing with back of spoon and stirring often, about 3 minutes (do not boil).
  • Place bread slices on rimmed baking sheet. Brush with oil; top with mozzarella slices. Broil until cheese melts and bread crisps, watching closely to prevent burning, about 3 minutes. Transfer crostini to platter.
  • Drizzle sauce over crostini; serve.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of bread for the crostini. A sturdy bread, such as a baguette or ciabatta, will hold up well to the toppings. You can also use a softer bread, such as a focaccia or sourdough, for a more delicate flavor.
  • Slice the bread into thin, even slices. This will help them toast evenly.
  • Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy. You can do this in a toaster oven, under the broiler, or in a skillet.
  • Make the anchovy herb butter ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Spread the anchovy herb butter on the crostini while it is still warm. This will help the butter melt and soak into the bread.
  • Top the crostini with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include diced tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, fresh herbs, or grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Serve the crostini immediately, while they are still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Cheese crostini with anchovy herb butter is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sophisticated and flavorful dish that will impress your guests. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give cheese crostini with anchovy herb butter a try.
