Cheese Appetizer de la France

Ingredients

Mayonnaise 30 g

Processed cheese 130 g

Brie 50 g

Mascarpone 75 g

Paprika 1 tsp

Onion 30 g

Parmesan cheese 40 g

Black grapes 200 g

Cashews 200 g

Mix homemade mayonnaise with plain processed cheese. Cut the Brie into very small cubes and add to the cheese-mayonnaise mixture. Add cream cheese and paprika. Stir. Don't try to achieve perfect smoothness. The beauty of this dish is that while you're savoring one bite, the flavors change several times due to the heterogeneity and varying spiciness of the cheeses. The key is to distribute the paprika evenly.

Chop the onion very finely. The proportions are very approximate, as I didn't weigh them. Don't overdo it. Finely grate the Parmesan cheese. Add and mix.

First, form small pancakes and place a medium-sized grape in the center. It's best to use sweet and sour grapes, seedless. Then, roll them into balls.

Chop the cashews. It's best to chop about a third finely (using a blender, for example), and the rest coarser.

Roll the balls first in finely ground cashews, then in coarsely ground cashews. Serve with real, high-quality red wine.

Bon appétit!
