Title: Cheesepaste - spreadable cheese
Post by: stef on January 31, 2012, 05:51:00 pm
I love spreadable cheese but they are full of chemicals and flavor enhancers. Being allergic to additives, i tried my own version (laughing cow style spread) . It came out a bit more lumpy then i wanted but it is all about taste isnt it..
The chili makes it hot, but you can replace it with other flavors like cumin, green pepper, whatever you fancy.

This is great on toast or bread for a party, or on a sandwich instead of cheese.
Here we go

200 gr of cheese ( all except young gouda or very dry cheese parmesan or peccorino style)
200 gr of milk
1/2 chili without seeds, chopped finely
Pepper
Salt
1 tbs of olive oil

Cut cheese in to cubes
Put it in the bowl with the milk seasoning  - let the cheese melt. - 80 degrees c - 7 minutes speed 1 - maybe you need to look and use the spatula to get everything from the sides.. Check if the cheese has melted and add a few minutes id necessary.
Add the olive oil and mix at high speed 10 seconds to speed 8
Put in a container and let cool down in the fridge...  Stir while cooling down to have a nice smooth mix. (let it set for about 24 hours)

Enjoy and let me know how you liked it

YUM!!!!!!!! I LOVE cheese! so I tried this as I've bought quite a few blocks of cheese on sale lately so needed to do something with them. I didn't have any chilli but I love seeded mustard and had just made sandwiches so threw in a few spoons of mustard but made the rest to your recipe.  WELL>>>> It is love.   :-*
