HERBED CHEESE SPREAD



Herbed Cheese Spread image

Tastes just like the expensive Boursin® cheese spread you buy at the store. Reduced-fat cream cheese works well in this recipe. Delicious spread on crackers or as a fill on celery sticks. Good shelf life in the refrigerator. This can be eaten right way, but it's best if refrigerated for at least one day before serving.

CANADIAN SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE SPREAD



Canadian Sharp Cheddar Cheese Spread image

Attention, cheese lovers! This may be the best cheese spread you've ever had! My friend's mother gave me this recipe over 15 years ago. I always make it around the holidays, or for football and hockey game nights. Everyone begs for this recipe. Turn this into a pub spread by adding a half cup of your favorite dark ale. Use brick cream cheese for a spread, or spreadable cream cheese for a dip. Serve with crispy crackers, toast, or bagels.

Tips:

- Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing. This facilitates a smooth and creamy spread. - Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. Fresh herbs, flavorful cheeses, and aromatic spices make a world of difference. - Don't overmix the spread. Overmixing can result in a dense and unappetizing texture. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined. - For a smoother spread, finely chop or grate solid ingredients like vegetables, nuts, and hard cheeses. - Experiment with different flavor combinations to create unique and delicious spreads. The possibilities are endless! - Serve the spread at room temperature for the best flavor and texture. If the spread has been refrigerated, let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving. - Garnish the spread with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, or a sprinkle of nuts before serving. This adds a touch of color and flavor.
