Cheese and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese Board

    Arrange the cream cheese, goat cheese, and sharp cheddar cheese on a serving platter. You can shape the cream cheese into a ball for a more appealing presentation.

  2. 2

    Char the Dates

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Slice the dates in half and remove the pits. Grill the dates cut-side down for about 2-3 minutes until charred. Remove from heat and let cool.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    Spread a small amount of orange marmalade on the cream cheese and goat cheese. Add the charred dates around the cheeses on the platter.

  4. 4

    Add Accompaniments

    Sprinkle candied walnuts and dried figs around the cheeses and dates for added texture and flavor.
