(Waiting for “it’s AI” comments because I know it’s too beautiful, but if you’ve seen my posts here, you know I love hosting 🤭🤭😍)
So, I wanted to celebrate a special occasion in my career the other day and invited a few friends for a drinks and bites evening at home.
I have more appetizers recipes on my app Eline’s Table if you want https://elinestable.com/app but I only wrote down the crostini one for now!
Everything turned out perfect :
• lavender & lychee gin and tonic
• herbed vegan cheese log
• mini carrot flans
• hot baked artichoke dip
• mini spanakopita
• mini coffee cheesecakes
• little fig & soy ricotta crostini
• served with a multigrain baguette
🍯 Here’s the crostini recipe:
• 1 baguette
• 500 ml soy milk
• 3 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• salt and pepper
• 8 figs
• vegan honey (I made “cramaillote” with dandelions this spring)
In a saucepan, heat the soy milk. When it’s close to boiling, remove from the heat. Immediately pour in the lemon juice to curdle the milk. Stir very gently and let it sit for 5 minutes.
Place a strainer over a bowl and line it with a cheesecloth. Pour in the milk. The curds will stay on top while the whey drains through.
Slice the baguette into thin pieces. Arrange them on a baking sheet and drizzle with a little olive oil. Bake at 180°C (355°F) for about 8 minutes.
Gather the ricotta in the cheesecloth and season with salt. Top the baguette slices with the ricotta, a slice of fig, salt, pepper, and a drizzle of vegan honey!
