Description
Formage fort, is simply the easiest, more delicious, and most rustic way to give leftover cheese a new breath of life.
Ingredients
- 1/2 – 3/4 pound of various cheeses (all sorts!)
- 2 cloves garlic
- handful of fresh herbs (optional)
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup of dry white wine (Chardonnay works particularly well)
- 1 or 2 pats of butter
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until combined.
- Remove lid and scrape down sides. Add more butter or more wine as necessary [if you’re working with hard cheese butter will help smooth it out and lend creaminess, wine will help thin it out and lend spreadability]
- Cover and refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months in an airtight container.
- Prep Time: 10 mins
