Recipe by
| Servings: Frico or little trifles in Italian are very thin and crisp. When sprinkling the cheese in the skillet don't worry if there are spaces; the cheese with melt into a lacy whole.

Ingredients:

  • 10 ounces harp white cheddar grated (about 5 cups) you can also use Asiago or Parmesan.
  • 1 tablespoon flour

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl toss together the cheese and flour.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium low heat.  Sprinkle about 1 ½ tablespoons cheese mixture into the skillet to form a four inch round.
  3. Cook until cheese is starting to melt and become firm, 1 ½ to 2 minutes.  Using a small offset spatula turn and continue cooking until it is firm and slightly golden, 15 to 30 seconds more.
  4. Immediately drape Frico over a rolling pin and let cool slightly to set the shape.  Repeat.  If skillet gets too hot and Frico begin to color too quickly, remove from heat for several minutes before proceeding.
