Blue Cheese, Walnut and Dates Syrup Little Boats
Blue Cheese Walnut and Dates Syrup Little Boats
"This blue cheese, walnut and date syrup boats is such a must-try recipe, a perfect combination and marriage of ingredients. I have made this over Christmas period and my mum tried it too. She was very intrigued by the combo and she noted down the recipe, saying she’ll prepare the ‘boats’ again, for my dad as well pretty soon when she reaches home. This must be good then? This can be a beautiful appetizer, snack or a nice, fine start to any meal."
NotesI normally use either a beautiful creamy blue cheese or a Stilton. Use any good quality blue cheese.
I do sometimes toast the walnut for that something else taste but raw ones will do beautifully. Try both and see which one you prefer.
If you don't happen to have dates syrup you can equally use a good old honey, maple or agave syrup. A homemade runny fruit jam would suffice too!
