Cheese with Fresh 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
- Double or Triple cream Brie cheese, rind on with Grapes
- Jarlsberg cheese with Peaches or Plums
- Chevre with Strawberries
- Stilton or Danish Blue cheese with Pears
- Garnish with tiny herb flowers to make a pretty presentation
How to make it
- This can be served on a wooden cutting board or pretty platter. 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
- Clean and slice fruit. You can sprinkle some lime or lemon juice over the fruit if you wish, but it probably won't last long enough to turn color
- Place fruit onto the platter next to the cheese and scatter the garnish
