Cheese with Dried Fruit
I have a few after dinner treats I like to serve guests, but by far the easiest are cheese and fruit. If you're serving 4 people, choose 1 cheese and
1 fruit. For a party, select several and include some cookies or
serve dessert after the cheese. Below are a few complimentary
combinations.
What you need
- 1 wedge Double or Triple cream Brie cheese, rind on
- 1 wedge Jarlsberg cheese
- 1 4 oz. log Chevre
- 1 wedge Stilton or Danish Blue cheese
- Dried turkish apricots
- Dried figs or dates
- Dried Cranberries or Cherries
- Shelled Pistachios, Pecans or Almonds
How to make it
- This can be served on a wooden cutting board or pretty platter. If desired, place several large nasturtium leaves under the cheese. If you have a
large group, prepare more than one platter with 1 or 2 cheese each.
- Give each guest a small appetizer or cake plate and a dessert fork
- Unwrap cheese and place on the platter leaving enough room for guests to cut and serve their own cheese
- Make small piles of the dried fruits in the center of the platter
- Sprinkle a handful of nuts over the dish. Garnish with nasturtium or other edible flowers for fun
