This may well be the world's easiest recipe, and it's so good! These little cheese crisps are great in salads or served alongside soup... and make any plate look fancy. If you want them to curl for an even fancier effect, let them cool around your rolling pin... gives a great shape.

1 c asiago, shredded and packed (or mix of asiago, romano and parmesan)
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • 2. Mix cheese, black pepper, and cayenne in small bowl.
  • 3. Spoon cheese mixture by generous tablespoonfuls in 6 mounds on each prepared baking sheet, spacing 3 inches apart. Using fingers, spread each mound evenly to 2 1/2-inch round.
  • 4. Bake until deep golden and crisp, about 12 minutes. Remove from oven.
  • 5. Slide parchment with frico onto work surface and cool 5 minutes. Slide thin metal spatula under frico to loosen. Cool completely on parchment.
  • 6. Note: These can be prepared 1 day ahead. Store at room temp in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cheese: Use high-quality Asiago cheese for the best flavor. Look for a cheese that is aged for at least 12 months.
  • Use Freshly Ground Pepper: Freshly ground pepper will provide the best flavor. If you don't have a pepper grinder, you can use pre-ground pepper, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Cook the Frico Over Medium-Low Heat: This will help to prevent the cheese from burning. Be patient and let the frico cook slowly until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the frico will not cook evenly. Make sure to leave enough space between each frico so that they can cook properly.
  • Serve the Frico Immediately: Frico is best served immediately after it is cooked. It will start to lose its crispiness as it cools.

Conclusion:

Asiago pepper frico is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties or potlucks. With its crispy texture and flavorful combination of Asiago cheese and pepper, frico is sure to be a hit with your guests.
