Burst blueberry compote and soft cheese




Wine/Spirit Pairing
Delheim Pinotage Rosé 2010
Ingredients
Method
- 3 x 125 g punnets blueberries
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 2 star anise
- 1 vanilla pod, split and seeds reserved
- ½ t fennel seeds
- 1 cup grenadine
- 3 x 200 g Duetto date-and-honey cheese
Method
Ingredients
Place a small saucepan over a medium to low heat. Add the blueberries, spices and grenadine and bring to a gentle simmer.
Leave to bubble away until the berries become plump, absorbing all the flavours. Spoon over slabs of creamy Duetto and serve immediately.
Cook’s note: Stack with savoury crackers for a free-form version of cheesecake.

TASTE’s take:
The spices in the compote punch up the flavours of the blueberries and the juices trickle beautifully over the creamy cheese in this decadent, yet deceptively easy, dessert.
