PARMESAN CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• Grate the Parmesan using the large grating side of a box grater, as you might use to grate carrots. Combine the Parmesan, flour, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix well. With a measuring spoon, spoon level tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared sheet pans, spreading each round into a 3-inch disk. Toss the mixture each time and scoop from the bottom of the bowl to be sure you get some flour in each spoonful. Bake in the middle of the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown.
• Cool on the pans for 5 minutes, loosen with a metal spatula, then cool completely on a baking rack. Serve at room temperature.

MIXED GREENS WITH ROMANO CRISPS

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle pan over medium high heat.
• Pile 1 tablespoonful of grated cheese in several spots on the hot pan, allowing about 1/2 inch between each pile. Cheese will melt, bubble, and form a cheesy lace. When the crisps turn light golden in color, remove them from pan carefully with a thin spatula. The cheese crisps will harden as they cool.
• Combine lettuces and fresh herbs, drizzle mixed greens with extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar, just enough to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top dressed salad with crisps.
