CROSTINI WITH CALIFLOWERS |
Califlower Crostini
INGREDIENTS & PREPARATION:
• 1 head cauliflower
• 1 clove garlic
• 1/4-1/3 cup of either Extra Virgin DOP Olive Oil or Single Varietal Extra Virgin
• salt & pepper to taste
Remove the flowerets and cut into slightly smaller pieces. Steam in/over salted
water until crisp-tender. In a saucepan, saute garlic in Savor Italy olive oil, add
steamed flowerets and cook until tender. Mash slightly with a fork to a spreadable
texture.
Toast bread on both sides. Rub with a garlic glove, drizzle generously with good
Extra Virgin olive oil (preferably a single varietal oil for a delicious peppery taste)
and add the cauliflower topping.
Sprinkle with salt and abundant black pepper.
Optional: Add ground or flaked peperoncino for added punch, either during
preparation
or after the topping has been added to the toasted bread.
Suggested wine pairing: Sauvignon Blanc
