ingredients

  • small block Asiago PDO

  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • dried thyme, to taste

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F.

  • Step 2

    Wash and slice your heirloom tomatoes. To drain excess water, lay your tomato pieces on a paper towel, season with salt and add another piece of paper towel on top. Let them soak for about 20 minutes.

  • Step 3

    Roll out your puff pastry and place on a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Step 4

    With a butter knife, lightly make a border around the edges making a crust. Poke the middle with a fork several times spread out throughout the puff pastry.

  • Step 5

    In a small bowl, mix your egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of milk together. Brush your puff pastry with your egg wash. Season your puff pastry with Italian seasoning.

  • Step 6

    Slice your Asiago PDO into thin pieces and place in the middle rectangle area of the puff pastry.

  • Step 7

    Add your dried sliced tomatoes and sprinkle salt and pepper on top. Cook in the oven for 25 minutes.

  • Step 8

    Top with dried thyme and additional grated Asiago PDO cheese. Enjoy while hot!
