Boursin Cheese and Fig Dip
Ingredients
- 2 packages of Boursin cheese – 5.3 ounces each see Notes
- 8 to 9 ounces of fig jam see Notes
- 1/4 cup pistachios roughly chopped
- 2 to 3 teaspoons hot honey see Notes
- Serve with crackers preferably plain crackers
Instructions
- On a 10 to 12-inch plate (or wide and shallow dish), spread the Boursin cheese close to the edge of the plate using the back of a spoon.
- Spread the fig jam on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle pistachios on top of the jam.
- Drizzle hot honey (to taste) on top of the pistachios.
- You can refrigerate the dip for a few hours before serving. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving.
- Serve with crackers, preferably plain so they don’t compete with the dip. You may use a cracker to scoop up the dip but you may want to add a spreader knife just in case.
Notes
* You can use any flavor of Boursin cheese. I used Shallot & Chive (purple container) as I thought it would pair well with the fig jam (and it did!).
* I used Dalmatia Fig Spread that I found at Wegmans. I used the entire jar (8.5 ounces).
* I recommend Mike’s Hot Honey which I also found at Wegmans. It’s really not that hot but if you’re worried about heat, use your favorite honey.
* Recipe can eaisly be cut in half – use one package of Boursin.
