GOAT CHEESE AND PISTACHIO-STUFFED DATES



Goat Cheese and Pistachio-Stuffed Dates image

Categories     Cheese     Side     Goat Cheese     Date     Pistachio     Pastry

Yield makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 ounces soft goat cheese
3 tablespoons shelled salted pistachios, toasted and coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
Freshly ground pepper
8 plump, soft dried dates (preferably Medjool), pitted and halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Stir together the goat cheese, 2 tablespoons of the pistachios, and the chives in a small bowl until smooth. Season with pepper.
  • Arrange the dates, cut side up, on a platter. Fit a pastry bag with a large round tip, and fill it with the goat cheese mixture. Pipe the mixture onto each date half to cover. (Alternatively, pipe the goat cheese mixture using a resealable plastic bag with 1 inch cut from one corner, or simply spread the mixture on the dates with a butter knife.) Garnish the dates with the remaining tablespoon pistachios and more chives.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and soft dates: Look for dates that are plump, dark in color, and slightly wrinkled. These dates are more flavorful and easier to work with.
  • Use a sharp knife to make a clean slit in the dates: This will help prevent the dates from tearing when you stuff them.
  • Don't overfill the dates: You want to leave a little bit of room so that the filling doesn't ooze out.
  • If you're using fresh pistachios, be sure to toast them before using: This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • For a sweeter filling, add a little bit of honey or maple syrup: You can also add a pinch of salt to balance out the sweetness.
  • Serve the dates immediately or store them in the refrigerator for later: If you're storing the dates, be sure to cover them tightly so that they don't dry out.

Conclusion:

Dates stuffed with pistachio cream cheese are an easy and delicious appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply enjoying at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and elegant treat that will impress your guests. So next time you're looking for something new and delicious to try, give dates stuffed with pistachio cream cheese a try. You won't be disappointed!
