Best Tri Colore Salad With Frico Crackers And Caesar Vinaigrette Recipes

GRUYERE AND CHEDDAR FRICO WITH ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss together both cheeses and the flour. Heat a large nonstick skillet over a low to medium flame and sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto the pan to form a 4-inch circle. Sprinkle some thyme over the cheese and cook until the cheese is somewhat melted but not firm. Using a spatula, turn the cheese over and cook until firm and golden.
• Transfer the frico to a paper towel, then quickly drape over a large rolling pin until completely cooled, to form a shell shape.
• To serve, remove from pin and top each frico with arugula salad.
• In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, shallots, mustard, and honey. Whisk in the olive oil and add salt and pepper, to taste. Lightly dress arugula leaves with the vinaigrette.
