Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

One 8-ounce jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped, oil reserved
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup water
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 baguette, cut into 3/4-inch slices
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • For the sun-dried tomato jam:
  • Place a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, 1 tablespoon of the reserved sun-dried tomato oil, olive oil, onion, and garlic. Stir and cook until the onions are soft and beginning to brown at the edges, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the sugar, vinegar, water, chicken broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Remove the cover and continue simmering until most of the liquid is reduced and the mixture is the consistency of jam, about 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • For the crostini:
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Place the baguette slices on the baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the baguette slices with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until lightly toasted, about 8 minutes.
  • Place the soft goat cheese in a small bowl. Stir in the thyme.
  • To assemble:
  • Spread the crostini with sun-dried tomato jam and top with the goat cheese and herb mixture. Transfer to a serving plate and serve.

GOAT CHEESE AND OLIVE-SUNDRIED TOMATO CROSTINI



GOAT CHEESE AND OLIVE-SUNDRIED TOMATO CROSTINI image

Categories     Cheese     Appetizer     Cocktail Party     Quick & Easy

Yield 24 crostini

Number Of Ingredients 15

HERBED GOAT CHEESE SPREAD
1 eight-ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
1 eleven-ounce package goat cheese, room temperature
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives
SUNDRIED TOMATO AND OLIVE TAPENADE
3/4 cup pitted kalamata olives
3/4 cup drained, oil packed sun dried tomatoes (drained)
1/8 to 1/4 cup rinsed capers (optional)
3/4 tsp dried oregano

Steps:

  • HERBED GOAT CHEESE SPREAD In the bowl of a food processor, process cream cheese and goat cheese together until creamy and well combined. Add salt, pepper, lemon juice, parsley, tarragon, dill, and chives; pulse until thoroughly combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Transfer spread to a Ziplock bag for quick and easy assembly. Spread will keep, refrigerated, up to 3 days. SUNDRIED TOMATO AND OLIVE TAPENADE Using food processor, using on/off turns, finely chop olives and tomatoes (but don't puree). Add olive oil, capers and oregano. Blend to coarse puree. Cover and refrigerate up to 3 days. Bring to room temp before serving. Skim extra oil before serving if there is a ton extra. Transfer spread to a Ziplock bag for quick and easy assembly. TOAST BAGUETTE AND ASSEMBLE Take goat cheese mixture out of the fridge and let it warm to room temperature (optional). Preheat oven to 350. Slice baguette into 1/2 inch slices and place on baking sheet. Brush the side up lightly with additional olive oil. Bake until golden 7-10 minutes. To make spreading easy, I keep both in Ziploc baggies and then just snip a little corner off the bottom to use like a pastry bag. Then you can just whip them out. Spread room temp goat cheese on toasts and top with room temp tapenade. You really don't want to toast these way ahead of time, best if made at the party. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread like a baguette or ciabatta will hold up well to the toppings.
  • Slice the bread evenly: This will help the crostini cook evenly.
  • Brush the bread with olive oil: This will help the bread to crisp up and prevent it from drying out.
  • Spread the goat cheese evenly over the bread: This will help to prevent the goat cheese from becoming too thick or clumpy.
  • Top the crostini with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include sun-dried tomatoes, olives, herbs, and balsamic vinegar.
  • Bake the crostini until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will usually take about 10 minutes.
  • Serve the crostini immediately: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
