Delicately blistered pizza crostini, creamy burrata and bursts of salty trout roe — it doesn’t take much more than that to turn a two-bite appetiser into a special occasion. This recipe for homemade crostini is a delicious and slightly unexpected addition to any holiday spread.
Crème fraîche is the traditional pairing with fish roe, but why not decadent burrata? With a shiny mozzarella-esque exterior and ridiculously creamy interior, this Italian cheese from Puglia has a mild but unmistakably luscious flavour. Its silken texture provides the ultimate backdrop for briny, amber trout roe. Piled on top of a blind-baked pizza crust cut into small squares, this bright orange and white bite is a real scene stealer. Don’t be surprised if it’s the first app in the spread to get eaten at your next party.
