Prosciutto and Pickled Vegetables With Cheese
- 1/2 pound cremini mushrooms,stems removed, caps sliced thin
- 1/2 small red onion, sliced thin
- 1/4 head cauliflower, sliced thin on a mandoline
- 3 sprigs thyme, leaves picked
- Pinch of red pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- Kosher salt
- 1 cup coarsely grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- 1/2 pound prosciutto, sliced thin
- 2 cups baby arugula
- Big fat finishing oil (such as good-quality Sicilian extra-virgin olive oil)
- Combine the mushrooms, onion, cauliflower, thyme, red pepper flakes, vinegar and salt to taste in a bowl.
- Toss well to combine, cover and let sit outside of the fridge for at least an hour, stirring once or twice.
- This will sort of cook the veggies and lightly pickle them.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. On a large baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper, make 4 flat circles of parmigiano-reggiano.
- Bake 8 to 9 minutes, or until the cheese looks golden and lacy.
- Remove the cheese rounds from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 1 to 2 minutes, then loosen them with a spatula.
- Let cool completely.
- Divide the prosciutto among 4 plates.
- Toss the mushroom mixture with the arugula and a drizzle of big fat finishing oil.
- Taste to make sure the mix is delicious.
- Arrange a pile of the veggie mix on top of the prosciutto on each plate.
- Crumble the parmigiano disks on top.
