Crostini w/ Manchego, Guava and Salami “Croutons”

Makes 4 Servings
wine WINE PAIRING
Oregon Pinot Gris

A crispy blend of sweet, savory, porky & cheesy goodness that evokes a much classier version of Hawaiian pizza.

INGREDIENTS
  • Sourdough Bread, thinly sliced into 16 half rounds
  • Olive Oil
  • 2 1/2oz Manchego Cheese
  • 1 block Guava Paste, very thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp Sopressata Salami, very finely cubed (brunoise)
  • Fine Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • High Heat Oil
  • Optional Garnish: Micro Marigold Petals

DIRECTIONS

1

Brush the sourdough slices with olive oil on one side. Spread them out on a baking sheet and broil them until lightly crisped and browned. Remove them from the oven.

2

Put 1 tbsp of finely grated manchego cheese on each crostini.

3

Put the cubed sopresatta in a frying pan with a ½ tbsp. of oil. Slowly render it until it crisps up.

4

Lightly broil the crostini, just long enough to melt the cheese.

5

Top each crostini with some of the sopressata cubes, guava slices, and (if desired) marigold petals. Drizzle with the olive oil. Serve.
