MORTADELLA, ARTICHOKE-HEART, AND OLIVE CROSTINI



Mortadella, Artichoke-Heart, and Olive Crostini image

Who needs bacon? These crostini pop are salty, meaty, and altogether irresistible.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 oil-packed anchovy fillets
Kosher salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 baguette, cut on the bias into 1/2-inch slices
1 can (13.5 to 15 ounces) artichoke hearts in water, drained, quartered lengthwise if whole, and thoroughly drained on paper towels
14 thin slices mortadella (about 1/4 pound), halved
Jumbo pitted black olives, drained and sliced, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler with rack 4 inches below heating element. Sprinkle anchovies with 1/2 teaspoon salt; crush into a paste using the side of a knife.
  • Transfer anchovy paste to a small saucepan; add oil and heat over medium, stirring frequently, until paste dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Brush 1/3 cup oil mixture evenly on both sides of bread slices; spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Broil, flipping once halfway through, until bread is crisp and golden in places, 2 to3 minutes total.
  • Toss artichokes with remaining oil mixture. Top each toast with a slice of mortadella, an artichoke wedge, and an olive slice. Drizzle with more oil; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A good, sturdy bread is essential for crostini. Look for a bread that is slightly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. A baguette or ciabatta are both good choices.
  • Slice the bread evenly: To ensure that the crostini cook evenly, slice the bread into uniform pieces. Aim for slices that are about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Brush the bread with olive oil: Before baking, brush the bread slices with olive oil. This will help them to crisp up and prevent them from drying out.
  • Season the bread: Sprinkle the bread slices with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to enhance the flavor of the crostini.
  • Bake the bread until golden brown: Bake the crostini in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and crispy. The exact baking time will vary depending on the type of bread and the thickness of the slices.
  • Top the crostini with your favorite toppings: Once the crostini are baked, they can be topped with a variety of ingredients. Some popular options include artichoke and olive tapenade, roasted vegetables, or fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Crostini are a delicious and versatile appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to suit any taste. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of crostini that are sure to impress your guests.
