  1. Cheese Roll

    May 16, 2008 by Tarrant Figlio

    As you can see by the quantities, this makes quite the cheese roll. However, it is easy to halve and such a yummy retro appetizer. Nini made this often as did my mother for all nature of parties. Serve with crackers, bread, spoon (ok, just kidding about the spoon, but I do like it a lot)

    Cheese Roll

    1 lb blue cheese
    1 lb Roquefort
    1/2 lb Philadelphia Cream Cheese
    Tabasco
    Worcestershire
    Horseradish (lots)
    Garlic
    Onion juice
    Mustard

    Heat in double boiler over medium heat until cheese is melted and ingredients are blended. Let harden in ice box. Roll in paprika on waxed paper.

    This from a Good Seasons recipe card. It is super easy. I don’t add the sugar. It makes a nice change from guacamole.

    Avocado Cheese Dip

    3 large ripe avocados, peeled
    1 large package cream cheese, softened
    1 envelope Good Seasons Old Fashion French Salad dressing mix
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1/2 teaspoon sugar

    Mash avocados. Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl. Beat with electric mixer until smooth, or press through a sieve and mix well. Makes about 3 1/2 cups dip.

  3. Chutney Cheese Spread

    April 4, 2008 by Tarrant Figlio

    Today’s retro appetizer courtesy of the jar of chutney minus a tablespoon in my fridge. You see, the recipe I used it for didn’t knock anyone’s socks off and it has languished there for some time. This recipe will work for using it up and pleasing the family. Since it is from the Spin Cookery Blender Cookbook from Oster(1967) the grind is all about using your blender. However, it may be easier for you to use a food processor if you have one. This works well on crackers, apples, or sweet breads.

    Chutney Cheese Spread

    1 8 oz package cream cheese, cubed
    3/4 cup chutney
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 teaspoon curry powder
    1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Flaked coconut

    Grind first 6 ingredients 45 seconds, stopping motor to push ingredients to blades, if necessary. Chill. Garnish with flaked coconut. Makes 2 cups
