Best 6 Sherried Greens With Fruit And Blue Cheese Recipes

GREEN SALAD WITH DRIED FIGS, BLUE CHEESE, WALNUTS, AND SHERRY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Place the salad greens, figs, walnuts, and dressing in a bowl and toss. Divide among plates and crumble the blue cheese on top of each salad.
• Sherry Vinaigrette
• Whisk together the shallot, vinegar, preserves, capers, and mustard in a small bowl. Whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Taste for balance, and add a little more olive oil, if you like. Season with salt and pepper.

BLUE CHEESE AND DRIED FRUIT TERRINE

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.

Steps:

• Puree the sherry vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, shallots and egg yolk in a blender. With the motor running, emulsify the oil into the mixture. Season with black pepper (the salt from the soy will be enough to season the vinaigrette).
