This may well be the world's easiest recipe, and it's so good! These little cheese crisps are great in salads or served alongside soup... and make any plate look fancy. If you want them to curl for an even fancier effect, let them cool around your rolling pin... gives a great shape.

ASIAGO FRICO

Provided by Martha Stewart

Yield Makes 2 dozen 4-inch fricos

Number Of Ingredients 2

9 ounces Asiago cheese, grated on the fine holes of a box grater to yield 3 1/2 cups
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss cheese and flour together. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture into the pan to form a circle about 4 inches in diameter.
  • Cook until the cheese is somewhat melted but not firm, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the cheese over, and cook until it is visibly firm and just taking on a little color, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Transfer the frico from the pan to a paper towel, and hold it in the palm of your hand. Press an offset spatula down the middle to form a taco shape. Transfer to paper towels to cool. Repeat with remaining cheese. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days.
