Ingredients

  • 3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 slices Baguette Bread
  • olive oil extra virgin
  • Maldon sea salt flakes
  • burrata
  • prosciutto
  • strawberries sliced
  • fresh basil leaves for garnish
  • Vincotto

Instructions

  • Make the browned butter: "Place the butter in a light-colored pan over medium heat. Medium heat ensures the butter cooks evenly, an important factor in this process. Stir the butter the entire time to keep it moving. Once melted, the butter will begin to foam and sizzle around the edges. Keep stirring. In about 3 to 4 minutes from when you started (depending on the amount of butter you used), the butter will turn golden brown. Some foam will subside and the milk solids at the bottom of the pan will be toasty brown. It will smell intensely buttery and nutty." Remove from the heat and pour the browned butter into a small bowl and set aside. If you leave in the pot or on the stove, the butter will burn.
  • Drizzle the baguette slices generously with olive oil and pan fry in a skillet over medium high heat until nicely browned and toasted. Once off the heat, sprinkle on some Maldon sea salt flakes. Top with burrata and spread evenly over the crostini. Top with the prosciutto and strawberries. Drizzle the browned butter over the top.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and top with the Vincotto. Enjoy immediately!
