GRILLED SUMMER SQUASH TARTINES



Grilled Summer Squash Tartines image

In this tartine (aka: an open-faced sandwich), abundant summer squash takes center stage, with a zippy supporting cast of fresh red chiles and tangy mostarda. For the base, we like Taleggio or fontina cheese for the way they melt into nutty, fruity gooeyness, and grill-toasted country bread for a light foundation that won't bow under pressure.

Time 20m

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large or 2 small summer squashes (12 ounces), sliced lengthwise into scant 1/4-inch-thick planks; or 8 baby squashes, halved lengthwise
4 thick slices Italian baguette or similar rustic bread
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 ounces Taleggio or fontina, thinly sliced
1/3 cup
1 fresh chile, such as Fresno or red finger, thinly sliced (ribs and seeds removed for less heat, if desired)
Cilantro leaves and tender sprigs, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium-high for direct and indirect cooking. Lightly drizzle squashes and bread with oil; season squashes with salt and pepper. Grill squashes and bread over direct heat, flipping once, until bread is crisp and squashes are tender and charred in places, 2 to 3 minutes total for bread; 5 to 6 minutes total for squashes.
  • Transfer to a platter or cutting board. Top bread evenly with cheese; return to grill over indirect heat. Cook, covered, just until cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
  • Top cheese toasts with grilled squashes, mostarda, chile, and cilantro. Lightly drizzle with oil and serve immediately.
