A frico, known in America as a cheese crisp, is an Italian food, typical of Friuli, which consists of a wafer of shredded cheese with a bit of flour, baked or fried until crisp. Common cheeses include Parmesan, Mozzarella, or Montasio. Frico is often used as garnish for soups or stews [1].

Fricos are not difficult to make [2] and can be shaped into baskets or bowls which can make for a very interesting way of serving foods or salads that aren't too moist.[3]
