Blue Cheese and Dried Fruit Terrine image

Provided by Food Network

Time 3h10m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound/450 g blue cheese, such as Roquefort or gorgonzola, at room temperature
8 ounces/225 g mascarpone cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon honey, optional
Freshly ground pepper
Handful chopped dried apricots
Handful currants
Handful chopped dried figs
Handful chopped green pistachios
Handful chopped toasted walnuts
Rustic country breads or crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • Mash the blue cheese and mascarpone together with the honey, if using, and pepper. (You can do this in the food processor, too, but it will cream the blue cheese so much that you get a greenish terrine. Not the end of the world, but just warning you.) Stir in the apricots, currants, figs, pistachios and walnuts. Season with pepper. Wrap in plastic and shape into a terrine. Refrigerate for several hours until firm. Serve with an assortment of rustic country breads or crackers and decorate with some whole dried fruits and nuts, if you like.

I'm giving this recipe one star because it's the lowest rating I can give. This terrine was inedible. It was so salty that it made my mouth pucker.

This terrine was a disaster. It didn't set properly, and it fell apart when I tried to slice it.

I found this terrine to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This terrine is a bit too rich for my taste. I would have preferred it if there was less blue cheese and more dried fruit.

I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed this terrine. The dried fruit and nuts helped to balance out the strong flavor of the cheese.
