Friselle ( A refreshing dish that can be ready to eat in less than 15 minutes)
Friselle is a big donut shaped dry bread that is twice baked that has a very long shelf-life and can be stored in your pantry for many months.

After the first bake, the friselle are completely cooled before being horizontally sliced in half, and back into the oven for the second bake until they are toasted to perfection.

It can be served as an appetizer, snack or a light meal with many different various toppings.

The first time I (Franca) ate friselle, it was over 30 years ago. My husband and I went to Italy for our niece’s wedding and my sister-in-law served her guests this dish as a light supper. I immediately took a liking to this dish! It was simply delicious 😋!

When I arrived back home to Montreal, I introduced this dish to my family and ever since then, we have been preparing this dish on a regular basis.

We will show you how to prepare the friselle, with 3 different toppings of our choice. Keep in mind that we “eye balled” the amount of ingredients, enough to top one friselle.

INGREDIENTS:
3 Friselle
Toppings:
1) First topping: Steamed green string beans, bocconcini, sliced red onions
2) Second topping: Cubed tomatoes 🍅 with Kalamata olives
3) Third topping: Tuna with cubed cucumbers 🥒
4) All the toppings have been dressed with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of oregano, and salt and black pepper to taste.

Here are some other topping ideas: a tossed salad, a mixture of canned beans,steamed vegetables 🥗, grilled chicken, ricotta, roasted peppers and so many more …..

DIRECTIONS:

1) Wet your friselle under cold water tap and place it on your plate. Top it with the topping of your choice and it’s ready to be sliced into and enjoy !😋 🍷 Now isn’t that easy !!!
