Not really a recipe, but my platter combo for accompanying dry red wines. The sharp cheeses pair well with reds as do the fruits. Ingredients:
1/2 lb italian gorgonzola, cut into small cubes |
1/2 lb aged sharp cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes |
1/2 lb aged asiago cheese, cut into small cubes |
2 bunches red grapes |
2 bunches green grapes |
1 cup dried apricot |
1 cup candied almonds |
1 cup pecans |
honey |
8 -10 fresh figs, halved (when in season in the fall) |
Directions:
1. Arrange the components on a large wooden cutting board.
2. Keep the honey near the gorgonzola (it's a great pairing).
3. Enjoy with your favorite red wines!
