Toast Points Recipes

PARMESAN CHEESE TOAST POINTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F. In a mixing bowl, combine the cheese, parsley, garlic, and mayonnaise together. Mix until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon of the mixture onto each baguette slice. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until the croutons are golden brown. Ladle the soup into a shallow bowl. Place the croutons around the bowl. Garnish with parsley.

TOAST POINTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Slice crusts off bread, and cut each slice into quarters to form four triangles. Place in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; toast in oven until bread is golden and beginning to crisp, about 15 minutes, turning once. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly.

LOBSTER AND CAVIAR ON TOAST POINTS

Steps:

• Place your lobster in a pot of rapid boiling water (heavily salted) for 10-15 minutes or until tail has a nice pink/reddish color and has curled. Drain, run under cold water and set in refrigerator to cool.
• Place sliced bread on a cookie sheet and toast in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until well toasted. Wrap garlic in aluminum foil with olive oil and place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the garlic cloves are soft. Set aside to cool.
• In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, roasted garlic cloves and chives. Mix well.
• Remove your lobster tail from the refrigerator. With pairing scissors cut the front and back of the tail lengthwise and remove meat. Set aside.
• Remove the crust from the toast and cut into points (triangles). Dab your herbed and garlic mayonnaise on the toast in the center. Slice your lobster so you have a nice hearty piece on top of the mayonnaise. Place a piece of arugula on top of the lobster and finish with a dab of caviar.
