Ingredients
Scale
Cheese
- 1 batch homemade boursin or 2 wheels of store-bought Boursin cheese
Jelly
- 12 ounces (340 grams) pepper jelly
Toppings
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) shelled and roasted pistachios, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Spread the Boursin Cheese: Use a spoon to evenly spread the Boursin cheese in a thin layer on a large serving platter or plate, creating a smooth base for the dip.
- Add Pepper Jelly: Spoon the pepper jelly generously over the layer of Boursin cheese, covering it completely to blend the creamy and sweet-spicy flavors.
- Top with Pistachios: Sprinkle the roughly chopped roasted pistachios over the pepper jelly to add a crunchy texture and nutty flavor contrast.
- Serve: Present the dip immediately with butter crackers, crusty bread, or homemade crostini for dipping and enjoy this effortless appetizer.
Notes
- This dip is best served fresh but can be chilled for up to 2 hours before serving.
- For a nut-free version, omit the pistachios or substitute with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, choose a mild pepper jelly or reduce the amount to taste.
- Homemade Boursin can be prepared ahead if desired for a more artisanal touch.
- Pair with a variety of crackers or breads to suit your guests’ preferences.
