How to:

Store cheese

Store cheese in your refrigerator, which approximates the temperature of aging rooms. Keep it wrapped tightly in plastic, away from air (which helps mold grow on cheese).

If you get a little mould on the outside, just cut it off. The English say that if mould won't eat your Cheddar it can't taste very good!

Most ripened or aged cheese is low in moisture content and can be frozen without drastic flavour and texture changes. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator for 24 hours or more.

If frozen for several months, the cheese may dry out somewhat and become crumbly when thawed.

Recipe by: Abigail Donnelly
Serves: 6
Category: Vegetarian / A little effort / Kid-friendly
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
400 g ready-prepared pastry
200 g goat’s-milk cheese
6 beetroots, cooked and sliced
2 avocados, sliced (optional)
24 asparagus spears, blanched and thinly sliced
chives, chopped, to garnish
For the dressing:
pulp of 3 granadillas
juice of 1 lime
2 t honey
1 T extra virgin olive oil
Cooking instructions:

Preheat the oven to 200ºC.

Roll out the pastry and divide into 6 rectangles. Place on a baking tray. Bake for 20 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown.

While still warm, spread over the cheese and top with the beetroot, avocado (if using) and asparagus.

Mix together the dressing ingredients and drizzle over the tarts. Sprinkle over the chopped chives.

Cook’s tip: If, as in this recipe, you need only the pulp and not the seeds, rub the granadilla through a sieve with a touch of hot water, which will help separate the pulp from the seeds.

TASTE’s take:

The scented dressing also goes well with roasted chicken portions or grilled fish.
