Bruschetta With Prosciutto Gorgonzola And Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipe
- Italians are great bread-eaters. Bruschetta are thin slices of bread, broiled and rubbed with a clove of cut garlic--the original garlic bread.
- 1 loaf Italian bread
- 2 x cloves garlic, halved
- 1/4 c. extra virgin extra virgin olive oil
- 8 x sun-dry tomatoes in extra virgin olive oil
- 6 ounce Gorgonzola cheese
- 4 slc prosciutto, cut in half
- 1 x To prepare the bruschetta, cut the bread into thin slices and broil or possibly
- Toast to golden.
- Rub one side of each slice with the cut surface of the garlic.
- Drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt and freshly grnd black pepper.
- 2 Drain the sun-dry tomatoes, scrape off any seeds and cut into thin strips.
- Press or possibly spread the cheese onto the bruschetta, lay the prosciutto on top and garnish with strips of tomato.
- Season with a few grindings of freshly grnd black pepper and serve.
- Chefs tips: If Gorgonzola is too strong for your taste, use the creamier, milder Dolcelatte instead.
- As a variation, marinate diced fresh tomatoes, garlic, and minced fresh basil leaves in sufficient balsamic vinegar to moisten well.
- Drain the excess juice and place a spoonful on top of the hot slice of bruschetta.
