How To Add Cheese To Traditional Italian Tomato Cheese Crustinis

"The next step, after cutting the basil is to put the basil and the two cheeses into the Cuisinart. Now the cheese I’m using is about eight ounces of goat cheese, that’s very soft, in French it's called Chevre and that’s not unusual, even for something Italian, we can use the French goat cheese, but then we also have the mozzarella, let’s see and that’s about eight ounces of mozzarella. Now Cuisinart is really just an electric food processor, its got a blade and what I’m going to do is, go ahead and break up the Chevre cheese into just big chunks and put that into the Cuisinart. There are many names for that, the Cuisinart, but any kind of a food processor will work. You might even have an attachment on your mixer. So anyway, in goes the mozzarella, and then next goes the basil that we’ve just cut. A good way to get it off the board is with the back of a knife, and just slide it on in, okay. So then I’m going to put the top on the Cuisinart, we call it Cuis, snap and then it needs to be locked and then what I’m going to do is pulse it. There is a difference between pulsing and just having it on. On means you don’t really get much control over how finely things are going to be mixed, but when you pulse, this is pulsing, then you really have a lot of control and now I’m just going to let it really mix until it kind of forms a ball. And what I’m going to do now is just open it up and see if it’s the way I want it. Yes, it is."
