Gorgonzola and mascarpone log recipe

Yields4 ServingsPrep Time15 minsCook Time5 minsTotal Time20 mins

An idea to replace the cheese platter, this log of blue cheese with mascarpone will be just perfect with some salad leaves.

Ingredients
 250 gorgonzola with mascarpone
 1 Chopped hazelnuts
 25 Japanese breadcrumbs
 20 butter
Directions
1

Remove the crust from the bread. Cut slices of 1 cm in length. Flatten them with a rolling pin. Spread cheese on the slices except for one that you will keep for the top. Stack the slices on top of each other, placing the last one on top. Wrap the whole thing in plastic wrap and tighten it well to form a ballotin. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

2

To finish, sauté 8 tablespoons of breadcrumbs in a pan. When golden, mix with 3 tablespoons of crushed hazelnuts. Remove the plastic wrap, melt the butter, and brush it all around the log. Coat it with the breadcrumb/nut mixture. Reserve in the fridge until serving time.
