Dips & Condiments

Yes, another flavoured cream cheese recipe from me – entertaining at home has become quite the normal finally, and I have discovered the pleasure have having various cheeses, condiments and crackers in the fridge and pantry – ready to be served within a jiffy.

When I got a pack of fresh rosemary, I had to find a way to make it last very long because greedy is my middle name – enter – cream cheese! Mixing it with cream cheese helps the shelf life, and also retains the delicious flavours – and paired with a hint of honey spicy crushed black pepper, and crunchy almonds, this one is quite the show stopper!

Enjoy!

The Recipe
Serves

Ingredients

  • 200 g cream cheese
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
  • ½ tsp minced garlic (see notes)
  • 8-10 finely chopped almonds
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • Whisk the ingredients together
  • Refrigerate in an air tight container
  • Serve with plain or black pepper crackers for the best pairing!
  • Notes:
  • Raw garlic takes time to develop flavour, so if you are serving immediately, I suggest increasing the amount to 1 tsp or so. All the flavour ingredients are based on your own tastes, so feel free to up the quantities of rosemary or honey
  • If you like spicy, then go ahead and add some finely chopped green chilies or dried red chili flakes

This pickle dip is inspired from a classic southern recipe with pickled dills to make a tangy multi-functional dip. Normally there are fried breadcrumbs on top, but I put fried onions because why not?

Fig Jam

Fig jam for me is a very gourmet, fancy sorta condiment – it even sounds like the jam came from the Ritz Carlton! But fig jam is so very versatile in flavor complementing that it is sort of a necessary condiment I keep at all times in my fridge. This is also a great way to use up older aged dried figs that have become hard and unenjoyable to eat.   So where all do I use it? In grilled cheese sandwiches with a touch of truffle oil, thyme and sometimes chilies. With vanilla bean ice cream. On crackers with a slice of sharp cheddar or grana Padano. With peanut butter to be spread of apple slices and topped with toasted nuts. To spread between two butter biscuits. To make fig newtons. Add on to a cheese plate. Need I say more?
