Steps:
- Whisk together vinegar, oregano and garlic in a large bowl until blended. Gradually whisk in oil. Stir in green olives, kalamata olives, roasted red bell peppers and black pepper.
- Using a serrated knife, slice 1 inch from top of bread loaf. Split loaf horizontally, and scoop out soft bread from both halves, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell. (Reserve soft center of loaf for another use, if desired.).
- Spread half of the vinaigrette in bottom half; layer with ham, salami, mortadella, cheese, onion and arugula. Spread remaining vinaigrette on top half of bread, and place vinaigrette side down on arugula. Cut the sandwich into 6 even wedges.
Tips:
- Use a good quality Parmesan cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the crisps.
- Grate the Parmesan cheese finely. This will help it to melt evenly and create a crispy texture.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the crisps from cooking evenly.
- Cook the crisps over medium heat. This will help them to cook through without burning.
- Watch the crisps carefully. They can burn quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on them.
- Let the crisps cool completely before serving. This will help them to crisp up.
Conclusion:
Parmesan crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or just a quick bite. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a crispy, cheesy treat that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give Parmesan crisps a try.
