Sweet and savoury toasts

The sweet toasts

• To make the sweet toasts, start by placing your slices of bread on the searing hotgrill.
• Toast them on each side for a few minutes until they are crisp and golden.
• Mix the stracchino in a bowl with the granulated sugar, using a wire whisk or an electric hand mixer, to obtain a smooth creamy sauce.
• Spread the mix on the toasted bread.
• Rinse the figs without removing the skin, then cut into segments and arrange these on the bread.
• Decorate with the walnut halves and flakes or chips of dark chocolate.
• Finish with a few leaves of fresh mint and your sweet canapés are ready!

The savoury toasts

• Here again, begin by toasting the slices of bread on the searing hot grill.
• Now stir the Gorgonzola in a bowl to soften and smooth it for easy spreading on the toasted bread.
• Decorate with grapes cut in half lengthwise, alternating the two colours on the surface.
• Finish by rolling up some slices of prosciutto crudo to form little roses and place them among the grapes.
• Add a few little leaves of aromatic thyme and the savoury canapés are ready too!
