Marinated Manchego
The only thing more crowd-pleasing than cheese, is marinated cheese. If Manchego isn't your thing, go for any semi-firm cheese like white cheddar, Gouda, or Monterey Jack. They go just as well with the notes of bright citrus and sweet cooked garlic.
INGREDIENTS
-
1 head of garlic, cloves separated and peeled (about 12 cloves)
-
1 small orange, quartered through stem end, thinly sliced crosswise, seeds removed
-
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
-
3 sprigs rosemary
-
Kosher salt
-
1 lb. young Manchego cheese, cut or broken into ¾" pieces
RECIPE PREPARATION
-
Cook garlic, orange, and oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until garlic starts to turn golden, 10–12 minutes. Remove from heat and add rosemary sprigs. Season with salt and let cool.
-
Pour garlic mixture into a medium bowl, add cheese, and gently toss to coat cheese. Cover and chill at least 12 hours before serving.
