Provided by Cabot Creamery Co-operative

Categories     Lunch

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup fresh dill fronds
1 cup fresh parsley leaves, loosely packed
1 clove garlic
¼ cup walnuts
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ lemon, juiced
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon cabot unsalted butter, softened
2 slices sourdough bread
½ cup Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese, finely shredded
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the pesto: Add the dill, parsley, garlic, walnuts, salt, and lemon juice to a high-powered blender or food processor and pulse, scraping down the sides as needed, until roughly chopped.
  • Turn the blender or food processor on medium speed and slowly pour in the olive oil, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. Blend for 1-2 minutes, until the pesto is smooth. The pesto will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Make the grilled cheese: Spread one side of each slice of bread with ½ tablespoon butter, then spread ½ teaspoon pesto on top of the butter on each slice.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the pan, then spread with ¼ cup (10 g) pesto and top with the Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese. Cover with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and and cook for 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
  • Sprinkle with the dill and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh dill, you can use 1 tablespoon of dried dill.
  • Use a food processor to make the pesto. This will give you a smooth and creamy consistency.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the herbs and nuts by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely.
  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for a richer flavor. If you use low-fat or non-fat cottage cheese, the dip will be thinner and less creamy.
  • Add more or less garlic to taste. If you like a lot of garlic, you can add up to 2 cloves.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite vegetables, chips, or crackers.

Conclusion:

Dilly pesto cottage cheese dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own tastes. Whether you are serving it at a party or enjoying it as a snack, this dip is sure to be a hit.
