Easy and Elegant- Really! Parmesan Frico

Have extra Parmesan cheese to use and want to make a very classy addition to a salad or soup? Make Parmesan frico! This turns cups of grated cheese into dainty, lacy crisps.

It's as easy as 1,2,3.

1. Grate your cheese (about 1 cup for 4 fricos)
2. Arrange cheese in 1/4 cup circles on a NONSTICK baking pan (or use parchment paper)
3. Pop in a 375 degree oven for 10-12 minutes until golden brown

These will be a bit bendable when they come out warm, so you can shape the frico into cylinders or cones if you are very fabulous and a master chef. Or you can do what I did and thrown them on a Cesare salad.

Either way, you look like the hostess with the mostest and your guests will be impressed and your culinary prowess.
