Lacy Parmesan Crisps are known as "frico" in Italy & are simply spoonfuls of grated cheese that are baked and cooled. I cooked these on a cookie sheet coated with aluminum foil & they did not stick. However, I used parmesan cheese that was already grated and I believe it was too finely grated. It would be better to use freshly grated parmesan and grate it very coarsely. Suffice to say, that this one was not a hit today, but that was my fault. The recipe below is for 24 crisps.Ingredients:
6 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese, coarsely grated (1 1/2 cups)
1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line large cookie sheet with foil. Drop level tablespoons of Parmesan 3 inches apart onto cookie sheet; spread to form 2 inch rounds.
2. Bake until edges just begin to colour, about 6 minutes. Transfer crisps, still on foil, to wire rack to cool for 2 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
