Marché Style Strawberry Tartine with Balsamic Reduction
This super simple, 5-ingredient dish is a brunch favorite I learned working for the great Margot McCormack. Warning: this strawberry tartine is about to become your new food obsession.
Ingredients
- 1 Slice Crusty Bread lightly toasted
- ¼ C Mascarpone
- 2-4 teaspoon Honey divided, to taste. Or sub maple syrup, agave nectar, powdered sugar, or sweetener of choice.
- 8-10 Strawberries sliced
- 2 teaspoon Balsamic Reduction
Instructions
- Pour balsamic vinegar into sauce pot. Put pot over low heat. Simmer until thick and syrupy. If you're feeling lazy, certain stores actually carry balsamic reductions already made.NOTE: If you want a sweeter balsamic reduction, add honey, agave or maple syrup to taste.
- Mix 1-2 teaspoon honey and mascarpone until well combined.
- Rinse your berries well. Stem and slice them. Drizzle them with a bit of honey (1-2 tsp), stir and let them sit for 5-10 minutes.
- Take a thick-ish slice of your yummy bread and toast it just enough to warm through. Slather on a generous swoosh of sweetened mascarpone. Pile the berries and their accumulated juices on as high as your heart desires. Drizzle with some balsamic vinegar. Dig in!
Notes
- Nutrition values are very approximate and will vary based on the size of the slice of bread you choose. For reference, this is based on a 185 calorie slice.
- No mascarpone? No problem! Mix together 8 oz of softened cream cheese with ¼ cup of heavy whipping cream. Mix until well combined. Your "mascarpone" is ready to use!
