Preparation

In a bowl, put the ingredients for the cheese, drizzle a thin stream of olive oil, season with salt and pepper and mix well. Reserve in the fridge.
Preheat the barbecue to maximum power and reduce to medium power. Drizzle the bread with olive oil on both sides and rub to spread.
Place the slices on the grills and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side or until the bread is lightly toasted.
Spread 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture on the croutons. Add a slice of Serrano ham followed by a few arugula leaves. Add a drizzle of olive oil followed by a drizzle of balsamic vinegar then season with salt and pepper. Cut into pieces and serve immediately!
