Disappearing Dip
Posted May 15, 2012
I made this using 30 ounces of goat cheese and roughly doubling the topping. I put it in a 8×12-inch casserole dish and it fed about 20 people. But I could have made more easily and I’m sure it would have been devoured. The combination of creamy, sweet, and spicy is amazing.
1 pound creamy fresh goat cheese, softened
6 tbsp. apricot preserves
4 Peppadew peppers, finely chopped
1 pickled jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
2 tbsp. minced cocktail onions
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1½ tsp. dried sherry
Pita chips, crackers, or baguette slices for serving
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Spread the goat cheese in a 5-by-8-inch gratin dish in an even layer. In a small bowl, whisk the preserves with the Peppadews, jalapeño, onions, mustard, and sherry. Spread the mixture over the goat cheese and bake on the top rack of the oven for about 5 minutes, until warm. Turn on the broiler and broil for about 2 minutes, until the topping is bubbling and lightly browned at the edges. Serve hot.
(DT: I assembled the dish the night before, refrigerated it, transported it to Bainbridge and baked it off there. Worked beautifully.)
