Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

18 diagonal slices (1/2-inch-thick) baguette bread
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 head of curly endive or frisee leaves, separated into 2-inch strips
1 (7-ounce) ball fresh water-packed mozzarella cheese, drained, cut into 18 thin slices
18 paper-thin slices prosciutto
2 tablespoons Red Wine Vinaigrette, recipe follows
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Arrange the bread slices on 2 heavy large baking sheets. Brush 3 tablespoons of oil over the bread slices. Bake until the crostini are pale golden and crisp, about 15 minutes.
  • Wrap 1 curly endive and 1 slice of cheese with 1 slice of prosciutto, allowing the tops to extend 1-inch over 1 long side of the prosciutto. Arrange the crostini on a platter. Top each crostini with a prosciutto roll. Drizzle the vinaigrette over and serve.
  • Mix the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually blend in the oil. Season the vinaigrette, to taste, with more salt and pepper, if desired.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed. The bread was too soggy and the flavors didn't really come together.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll cut back on the prosciutto next time.

I'm not a big fan of endive, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm so glad I did! The endive was perfectly balanced by the other ingredients.

OMG this bruschetta was to die for! I loved the combination of flavors and textures. The crispy bread, the salty prosciutto, the creamy mozzarella, and the slightly bitter endive all came together perfectly.
