Stilton Stuffed Eggs Recipes

STILTON-STUFFED DATES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Make a lengthwise cut in each date and gently remove the pit, forming a pocket. Fill each date with 1/2 teaspoon cheese. Cut each piece of bacon in half by width. Take a strip of bacon and wrap it around each date, forming a slight overlap on the bottom (cut side up), and place on a rack within a sheet pan. Bake until bacon is crisp and cheese melts, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool slightly and serve.

STILTON PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. Line a baking tray with baking parchment
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry to 30cm/12in x 23cm/9in.
• Cut the pastry into four strips lengthways and then six across, leaving you with 24 rectangles of pastry.
• Crumble the Stilton into a bowl and crush with a fork.
• Put a heaped teaspoon of the cheese into the centre left of each rectangle, brush the edges with the egg wash.
• Fold the pastry over the cheese and crimp the edges to seal and place onto the lined baking tray.
• Brush the outside with the beaten egg and grate the parmesan over each parcel. Make a little hole in the top of each parcel with the tip of a sharp knife.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden-brown all over.

STILTON STUFFED EGGS

Steps:

• Halve eggs lengthwise, remove yolks and mash with the cheese, cream, salt and pepper.
• Pile mixture back into egg halves.
• Sprinkle with paprika.
• Serve on a tossed salad of cold cooked green beans, tomatoes, raw sliced mushrooms, lettuce and salad dressing of your choice (if using).

STILTON DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the cheese, mayonnaise, heavy cream, vinegar, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until smooth.
• Place a wedge of lettuce on each serving plate. Pour enough dressing over the lettuce to moisten. Serve immediately.

FALL FIGS STUFFED WITH STILTON CHEESE, WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO AND CHATEAU ELAN PORT WINE SYRUP

Steps:

• Cut figs into quarters and place them in a saucepot with the port wine and bring to boil, simmer and reduce by 2/3. You should have a little less than a 1/4 cup of port at a syrup consistency. Allow the port syrup to cool.
• On a cutting board, tear thin slices of prosciutto lengthwise in half and place 16 pieces on the board. Take a piece of fig and place it at 1 end of the prosciutto and place a small piece of Stilton cheese on top of the fig and roll the fig with the prosciutto. Continue this process with the remaining figs, Stilton cheese, and prosciutto.
• To serve, arrange the figs on a platter and drizzle with the port wine syrup.
