Tasting Notes:
I love Sunergia's feta (the company also makes seasoned tofu and soy blue cheese, both of which are delicious) and this was a great showcase for it. Like dairy feta, the vegan version doesn't melt in the oven, but it does become wonderfully warm and creamy, perfect for spreading on the baguette slices. As a personal preference, I might have toasted the bread for a few minutes less, since I prefer slightly softer crostini to super-crunchy, but a couple slices of toast with the spread made a great, festive appetizer nonetheless.
