GRILLED BREAD WITH FONTINA, GORGONZOLA AND MUSHROOMS



Grilled Bread With Fontina, Gorgonzola and Mushrooms image

I was planning a dinner party, and was picking up the needed ingredients at my local market, when an appetizer cookbook caught my eye. It figures that in the first few pages I found something I had to try. Committed to memory long enough to buy what I needed, but forgot enough by the time I got home I didn't want to chance it without help, so I went on the internet to see if I could find something similar and lo and behold I found it exactly on the Wisconsin Cheese and Dairy Recipes site. The recipe is credited to Chef Tom Catherall of Atlanta, GA. I served it as our appetizer that evening and it was a big hit. I have to admit that I didn't use 1/2 lb of exotic mushrooms - just couldn't afford it, so I mixed in plain old button mushroom and small amount of shitake. Used less then the called for amount of Portobellos as well. I think it would make an excellent pizza as well.

1/2 cup mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons freshly chopped thyme leaves

6 large portobello mushrooms, stems removed

Steps:

  • Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.

Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the mascarpone cheese.

Categories     appetizer

Time 16m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 loaf ciabatta bread
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large cloves garlic
1 tomato, halved crosswise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Slice ciabatta in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into 1-inch slices. In batches as needed, grill the ciabatta slices, cut side down until they are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Working quickly, drizzle the toasted sides with extra-virgin olive oil. Rub the garlic cloves over the grilled bread, then rub the cut side of the tomatoes over the grilled bread. It's important to do this while the bread is still hot or warm, otherwise the garlic won't melt into the bread. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm.

GRILLED FONTINA, MUSHROOM, AND ARUGULA SANDWICHES



Grilled Fontina, Mushroom, and Arugula Sandwiches image

Categories     Sandwich     Mushroom     Vegetarian     Arugula     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Fontina     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons (about) olive oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
4 very large portobello mushrooms, stemmed, dark gills removed, caps thinly sliced
8 1/2-inch-thick slices country white bread (each about 3x6 inches)
Dijon mustard (optional)
8 ounces Fontina cheese, thinly sliced
2 bunches arugula or 1 bunch trimmed watercress

Steps:

  • Heat 4 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add rosemary and stir 30 seconds. Add mushrooms. Cover skillet and cook until mushrooms are tender, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Season mushrooms to taste with salt and pepper; transfer to plate. Wipe out skillet.
  • Arrange 4 bread slices on work surface; spread with mustard, if desired. Top bread slices with cheese, then mushrooms and arugula, dividing equally. Top each with bread slice; press to compact. Brush tops lightly with oil.
  • Heat reserved skillet over medium heat. Place sandwiches, oiled side down, in skillet. Brush tops lightly with oil. Cover and cook until golden on bottom, occasionally pressing with spatula, about 5 minutes. Turn sandwiches over. Cover and cook until golden on bottom and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer sandwiches to plates; cut in half and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread that can hold up to the toppings is best. A sourdough or French bread would be a good choice.
  • Use good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A combination of Fontina and Gorgonzola is a classic choice, but you could also use other types of cheese, such as Gruyère or Parmesan.
  • Cook the mushrooms properly: The mushrooms should be cooked until they are soft and browned. This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: When grilling the bread, don't overcrowd the grill. This will prevent the bread from cooking evenly.
  • Serve immediately: Grilled bread is best served immediately, while it's still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Grilled bread with Fontina, Gorgonzola, and mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for a party or a casual get-together. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that everyone will love.
