| Serves 4 ingredients - 500 g (1 lb 2 oz) Taleggio cheese
- 4 tbsp white wine
- 1 rustic bloomer loaf of whitebread
- 20 slices salami (freshly sliced)
- vegetable oil for frying
method Crostini 1 Cut 3 slices (about 2 cm thick) of bread and paint with oil. 2 Heat a ribbed grill pan (or frying pan) to a high heat. Place the bread in the pan and lower the heat. 3 Toast until golden for 2–3 minutes on each side. Salami strips 1 Cut the salami into chunky strips approx. 75 mm (3") long. Fondue 1 Peel the skin off the cheese and dice into 1 cm cubes. 2 Pour just enough wine into a pan to cover the base. Bring the wine to a simmer. 3 Carefully add the cheese into the pan. It is best to keep it on a low heat because you want the cheese to melt, but not to go so far that it splits. 4 Stir to produce a smooth texture. The consistency should be like thin mayonnaise. Pour the mixture into a warm ceramic bowl and serve immediately with the crostini and salami strips.
