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.

MUSHROOM CROSTINI



Mushroom Crostini image

This simple-to-make, hearty appetizer features goat cheese and wild mushrooms atop crisp baguette rounds.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 small (or 1/2 large) baguette
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 shallot, thinly sliced into rings
8 ounces chanterelles or other wild mushrooms, trimmed and coarsely chopped
12 rounds (1/4 inch thick) goat cheese, cut from a log (about 6 ounces), room temperature
Fresh chives, snipped for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut baguette crosswise into 12 quarter-inch thick slices; place on a baking sheet. Brush with oil; season with salt and pepper. Toast in the middle of oven until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallot; cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and any juices have evaporated, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a round of goat cheese on top of each crostini; top with a tablespoon of mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with chives. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Mushrooms: For the best flavor and texture, use a mix of fresh mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Slice Mushrooms Thinly: Thinly sliced mushrooms will cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the butter and herbs better.
  • Use a Variety of Herbs: Don't be afraid to mix and match different herbs to create a unique flavor profile. Some popular choices include thyme, rosemary, and sage.
  • Toast the Bread Perfectly: To achieve a crispy exterior and a soft interior, toast the bread slices until they are golden brown.
  • Spread the Mushroom Mixture Evenly: Make sure to spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the toasted bread slices so that each bite is packed with flavor.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the crostini with fresh herbs for an extra pop of color and flavor.
