We bought a significant amount of plums and peaches the other week, and as they have been ripening to perfection, we have been enjoying them in a variety of things. Yet just about every day, I stare at them and try to think of what sounds the BEST. And here enters to prosciutto. That’s really all I thought about. So I of course, went out and bought some. Have any excess fruit laying around that you’re needing to use? This Stone Fruit & Prosciutto Tartine takes less than 5 minutes to put together, and is a great way to savor the summer.
Ultimately, this is fancy toast. But what makes fancy toast go from good to great is getting the right flavor combinations. I think the pairing of plums and peaches are so lovely because the sugary sweetness of peaches balances beautifully with the crisp, tartness of the plums. Meanwhile, the addition of both the prosciutto and feta add a salty contrast, and depth of flavor. Top it off with the staple summer ingredients of balsamic vinegar and fresh basil, and you have your sweet, salty, herby, zingy and hearty treat. This Stone Fruit & Prosciutto Tartine makes for a great breakfast, lunch, or mid-day snack. And what’s not to like about a quick, fresh and tasty snack like this!
