Taleggio Tasting
Taleggio Tasting: A Delicious Italian Cheese Platter
If you're a cheese lover, you'll definitely want to try this Taleggio Tasting recipe. This Italian cheese platter is perfect for a party or a romantic dinner for two. The star of the show is Taleggio cheese, a semi-soft cheese with a tangy, buttery flavor and a pungent aroma.
To make this dish, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 200g Taleggio cheese
- 100g Gorgonzola cheese
- 100g Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup grapes
- 1/2 cup figs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 baguette, sliced
To assemble the platter, start by arranging the cheeses on a large platter. Cut the Taleggio cheese into small wedges, crumble the Gorgonzola cheese, and shave the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese into thin slices.
Next, add the walnuts, grapes, and figs to the platter, arranging them around the cheeses. Drizzle honey over the Taleggio cheese and balsamic vinegar over the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
Finally, toast the baguette slices and arrange them around the platter.
This dish is perfect for sharing and pairs well with a glass of red wine. The Taleggio cheese has a creamy texture and a tangy, buttery flavor that pairs well with the sweetness of the honey and the tartness of the balsamic vinegar. The Gorgonzola cheese adds a sharp, pungent flavor, while the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese adds a nutty, salty flavor. The walnuts add a crunchy texture, while the grapes and figs add a sweet, fruity flavor.
