Pear & Havarti Cheese Rolls (via Smaku)
Pear & Havarti Roll
By Smaku
Recipe from the Pleasures of Cheese 2005 Special Holiday Issue booklet
Yields 1 full roll per slice of each ingredient
Ingredients
Thinly sliced prosciutto
Herbed Havarti cheese (I used tomato basil), sliced about 1cm in width
Red peppers, sliced about 1/2cm thin
Pears, sliced finger thick (pears with a slightly firm texture are best)
Sprouts (alfalfa, broccoli, radish, bean, etc.)
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1) Take a slice of the red pepper, pear, Havarti, and some sprouts and place it on one end of the prosciutto
2) Garnish with freshly ground pepper to taste
3) Starting from the side with the slices, roll the prosciutto to the other end, leaving the ends open
4) Cut in half for smaller pieces or leave uncut for one large piece
NOTE: Can be made in advance and left in the refrigerator until serving. The saltiness of the prosciutto contrasts well with the sweetness and firmness of the pear.
