Cheese
Spiced Pear
Garnish
Method
Prepare the Goat Cheese
Wash the Goat Cheese
In a shallow bowl, pour El Velo tequila. Submerge the goat cheese in the tequila and let it soak for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Prepare the Spiced Pear
Cook the Pears
Peel, core, and slice the pears into thin wedges. In a pan over medium heat, melt the butter, then add the pears, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the pears are tender and caramelized.
Prepare the Garnish
Chop the Pistachios
Roughly chop the pistachios and set aside.
Prepare the Lemon
Zest the lemon and then cut it into wedges for garnishing.
Assemble the Dish
Plate the Ingredients
On a serving platter, arrange the tequila-soaked goat cheese in the center. Top it with the spiced pears and sprinkle the chopped pistachios over the top. Garnish with lemon zest and lemon wedges around the plate.
