Mozzarella Date Appetizer

Rachelle teaches Daytime Hosts Dave & Cindy how to make a recipe she learned from Chef Oscar at Hacienda Tres Rios. Perfect for Fall and Winter entertaining and parties, this sweet and savory appetizer includes dates, onion, walnuts and mozzarella.

MOZZARELLA ROLL RECIPE

Ingredients

16 oz. mozzarella cheese

5 pieces of dates

1 tablespoon chopped red onion

½ tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped walnuts

Fresh lettuce for garnish

Pepper

Ingredients for sauce

12 oz. Heavy cream
1 oz. Balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste

Ingredients for sauce 2

12 oz. Heavy cream
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Procedure

In a saucepan plan, add the oil and chopped onions. Saute until the onions caramelize and brown. Then add the dates and nuts, a little salt, mix together and let it cool.

In warm water, place the mozzarella to soften. Knead with your fingers to achieve a circular shape. Place the filling in the center and close the rolls in form of a package.

For the sauce mixes, the ingredients are added separately to obtain a white sauce and a brown sauce.

Decorate the dish with the sauces, place the mozzarella rolls and finish with the lettuce.

A second helping (follow up) to the recent pumpkin cheesecake post. (To see the full recipe, click here.)

A little explanation before you watch the video. First ... cheesecake takes longer than 4 minutes. Second ... if you have never been in a television studio ... it is FAAH-REEEZ-ZING! That being said, "room temperature" in the studio was not exactly warm enough to soften up the cream cheese so in the end you'll see it looks a little lumpy. It's not supposed to be. (wink). As long as your kitchen isn't as cold as a TV studio ... or ... let's say ... Antarctica for that matter ... and you follow the recipe, you'll have a smooth and creamy cheesecake! Check out the Daytime clip below ...

DAAANG! iPhone takes a good photo. Thanks to my friend Beth for snapping a shot during the shoot.

And here's how my at-home cheesecake turned out. Yum.

I'll be modifying the Autumn Sangria recipe for the holidays on Daytime next week ... so stay tuned!

Get Lost!

Ever get lost in a corn maze? In my last little ode to fall, I went on a little day trip with fellow Innkeepers Jim & Ana with the Mount Dora Historic Inn to a local corn maze. A maize maze. I thought getting lost in 6 acres of corn would be a great way to get outdoors, enjoy the weather and walk off all the tasty holiday indulgences.

Check it out in the video below and test out the crazy recipe for corn cupcakes that we came up with while trying to find our way out of the maze!

Meet Jim

Meet Jim. He's the "man behind the lens" on a lot of the photos you see here on the site. I cook. He shoots. I crack an egg in a bowl ... he laughs because he feels like he's taken over 100 pictures of eggs. I spray pam in a pan ... he glides across my kitchen floor on his knees because I should have been smarter to spray it over the sink. We have fun cooking, shooting and eating. And because I've been cooking and eating so much I signed up to do a marathon with his wife, Beth. She motivates me to stay in shape. And since Jim lives pretty much on coffee and Guinness alone, she and I eat all the yummies after we shoot them. In addition to mouth watering food porn photos, we also drool over the B&H catalog ... Jim over the photo stuffs and me over the video stuffs. But THIS video was done by another friend of mine, Marc with Odyssey Creative. Check it out ... and meet Jim!
