This is a 'classic' way to prepare grapes in Blue cheese - and in fact is a very good recipe. Not my favorite recipe, but it's certainly pretty foolproof. Ingredients:
1/4 lb blue de bresse cheese or 1/4 lb other blue cheese |
1/4 lb cream cheese |
50 seedless grapes |
1/4 lb pistachios, shelled |
Directions:
1. Combine the Blue cheese and the cream cheese in a mixer with a paddle and mix well, there should be very few lumps. 2. Refrigerate for 1 hour. 3. Wrap a small amount of cheese around each grape by rolling in the palms of your hands. 4. Store on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. 5. Chill for at least 1 hour to overnight. 6. Pule the pistachios in a food processor or chop *finely*. 7. Roll the grapes in the nut powder and shape with the palms of your hands. 8. This can be done up to 1 hour before serving. 9. Do not refrigerate once the grapes have been rolled. |
