INSPIRATIONAL GOAT'S CHEESE ON GARLIC CIABATTA TOAST



Inspirational Goat's Cheese on Garlic Ciabatta Toast image

Toasted goat's cheese on toast that has been spread with garlic paste.......and then served on mixed salad leaves - brilliant! I am hooked on Nigel Slater's new programme, "Simple Suppers", where he prepares and cooks food just the way I like it...........fresh, seasonal, unpretentious, flexible and hearty. This is one of Nigel's "Inspirational" recipes that was shown on his first programme. In the absence of ciabatta bread, I would be inclined to use any rustic bread........with lots of body! (Recipe from NIgel Slater's Simple Suppers and the Digin site.)

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

SPREAD:
1 1/4 c cottage cheese (low fat ok to use)
1 1/4 c blue cheese, crumbled (about 5 ounces)
1 large clove garlic
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 green onions, with tops, finely chopped
1/4 c finely chopped fresh basil
2 Tbsp slivered toasted almonds
BREAD:
2 french bread baguettes, sliced into 16 pieces each
1 stick butter, melted
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. SPREAD: Combine cottage cheese, blue cheese, garlic, and lemon juice in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Add green onions, basil, and almonds. Blend until mixed but still lumpy and not smooth. Pour dip into serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • 2. BREAD: Spread melted butter on both sides of bread slices. Lay on a non-stick cooking sheet. Stir together garlic powder and salt. Sprinkle on one side of buttered bread. Turn on broiler and allow it to heat up a moment. Broil bread about 6-8 inches from heating element for 30-45 minutes per side. Serve warm with Blue Cheese Herb Spread on the side.

Tips and Conclusion

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, slice your baguette or bread into equal-sized pieces.
  • Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly on each slice of bread. This will help the flavors meld and prevent the bread from becoming dry.
  • For a crispier crust, toast the bread slices in a preheated oven or toaster oven.
  • If you prefer a softer crust, toast the bread slices in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Top the toasted bread slices with a generous amount of grated cheese. You can use any type of cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan.
  • Broil the bread slices until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on the bread to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the garlic cheese toast immediately, while it's hot and gooey.

Conclusion:

Garlic cheese toast is a simple but delicious appetizer or snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
