Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Grate the Parmesan cheese if it isn't already grated.
- Measure out the light sour cream.
- Pit the dates if necessary and chop them roughly.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and the light sour cream. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated and you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Add the roughly chopped dates to the mixture. Stir gently to evenly distribute the dates throughout the spread.
- For the best flavor, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the spread to an airtight container and refrigerate the spread for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the Blue Cheese and Date Spread with an assortment of crackers, sliced baguette, or sliced vegetables like celery sticks or bell peppers.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving again.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh dates for the best texture and sweetness.
- If blue cheese is too strong for your taste, you can substitute with Gorgonzola or Roquefort, which are milder alternatives.
- Let the spread sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before serving to enhance its flavor.
Enjoy your Blue Cheese and Date Spread as a sophisticated appetizer or a delightful snack. Its blend of rich blue cheese and the natural sweetness of dates is sure to please any palate. Keep this simple yet impressive recipe in your repertoire for any time you need to wow your guests.
