Grilling season is well underway. I know, I know, some folks grill year round but I think it's safe to say everyone is grilling now!
Burgers, dogs, chicken, steak, pork, sausage, and some vegetables. Woo hoo!
Know what else?
Grill some bread. Grill it as a base for bruschetta. Grill it then rub with sliced, fresh garlic. Grill it then top with horseradish mayo and roast beef. Grill it before smearing on some goat cheese and cranberries, or carmelized onion, or grilled portabella mushrooms. Grill bread for crostini, canapes, or just to enjoy the flavorful, seasoned crunch! But please - try it! Click here for a few more details for your grilled bread!
Grilled & seasoned bread
- Slice the bread in approximately ½” slices
- In a bowl, whisk together olive oil with salt and pepper to taste (do not skip this opportunity to season)
- Use a pastry brush to lightly coat each side of the bread slices – immersing the bread in the oil mixture to save time will result in soggy crostini
- Grill bread on both sides at a low enough temperature to allow the entire slice to warm through as well as have a crispy texture with visible golden-brown color.
Keep trying new techniques for classic favorites. Grilling allows everyone to move outside and socialize, gives foods a distinct taste and texture, and can turn everyday foods into festive fare. Exactly what we need for these times and to facilitate feeling Fed Well - again!
