\nSeptember is now the month of\u00a0 the ‘Settembrini’ when everything has a September feel to it. The air now has a gentler heat to it..the figs of September are smaller than those in July and August..
\nThe weather has a September feel to it- fresh and lighter…….the fruit and veggies appearing at the local food markets are now all with a September theme..apples and \u00a0pears have taken the place of\u00a0 fresh watermelon and peaches..
\n\u00a0Hope you enjoy the beginning of a new month that will soon become a new season..For more recipes, catch up with today’s recipe Tuesdays <\/a>at my twitter site but here is a recipe to start off the month with one last attempt at grilling and celebrating\u00a0\u00a0 the finish of one season and beginning of another.<\/p>\n

Bruschetta Grigliata (On the Grill)<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\nOlive oil flavored with garlic, fresh basil, or rosemary.
\n1 loaf of crusty Italian bread cut into 1-inch thick slices
\n1\/4 cup extra -virgin olive oil <\/span><\/p>\n

(optional-bring along toppings to put on top-sliced mozarella cheese, pepperoni slices, fresh tomato slices, shredded chicken, shredded lettuce)<\/span><\/p>\n

Prepare barbecue (medium-high-heat). Brush both sides of bread generously With oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden, about 1 minute per side. 6 servings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep the tastes buds firing with Grilled Shrimp (Scampi Grigliati). The seasoned shrimp is grilled on bamboo skewers, a fabulous accent for any summer appetizer.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Scampi Grigliati <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

*1\/4 cup finely chopped garlic, mashed to a paste with 1 teaspoon coarse salt.
\n*2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
\n*3 tablespoons olive oil plus oil for brushing shrimp
\n*16 jumbo shrimp (about 10 per pound)
\n*four bamboo skewers
\nIn a large bowl stir together garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, and 3 tablespoons oil and add shrimp. Marinate shrimp, covered and chilled, at least 8 hours or overnight. <\/span><\/p>\n

To grill, thread 4 shrimp on each skewer and brush with additional oil. Grill shrimp on an oiled rack, set about 5 inches over glowing coals, 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. <\/span><\/p>\n

Alternatively, brush shrimp with additional oil and grill in a hot well-season ridged grill pan, covered, over moderately high heat 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. <\/span><\/p>\n
