New England tradition is behind this hearty soup supper. A mixture of tangy cheddar, Port wine and Dijon mustard produces a terrific spread to nibble on while the chowder is cooking. Pour Sauvignon Blanc throughout the meal. Ingredients:
10 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, diced, room temperature |
1/3 cup ruby port |
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions |
assorted crackers |
Directions:
1. Combine cheese, Port, butter, mustard and pepper in processor. Blend until mixture is smooth, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Add onions; using on/off turns, process until just blended. Transfer spread to small bowl or crock. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring spread to room temperature before serving.) 2. Place bowl of spread on platter. Surround with crackers and serve. |
