Crostini Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Bread

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice the porcini sourdough bread into 1/2 inch thick slices and arrange them on a baking sheet.

2. 2

   Add Olive Oil

   Brush each slice of bread lightly with olive oil on both sides.

3. 3

   Toast the Bread

   Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast the bread for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

4. 4

   Sauté the Mushrooms

   In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped mushrooms and fresh thyme, and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Assemble the Crostini

   Place a spoonful of the sautéed mushrooms on each toasted slice of bread. Top each with a slice of Taleggio cheese.

6. 6

   Final Bake

   Return the assembled crostini to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, and serve warm.
