Peppadew Cheese Food

STUFFED PEPPADEW® PEPPERS

Steps:

• Lay a slice of soppressata on a cutting board. Place a basil leaf in the center with the curved part of the leaf aligned with the curved part of the soppressata. Place a cube of blue cheese on top of the basil. Roll up the soppressata around the basil and cheese and stuff into a pepper. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

STEAK SANDWICHES WITH BLUE CHEESE AND PEPPADEW MAYO

Steps:

• Put the Peppadew peppers and mayonnaise in a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. Transfer to a bowl; clean out the food processor. Add the blue cheese, sour cream and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the processor and pulse until combined. (The spreads can be made 1 day ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
• Preheat a grill to medium high and brush with vegetable oil. Sprinkle the steaks with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill until a thermometer inserted into the meat registers 135 degrees F for medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and season with salt; let rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, brush the insides of the rolls with vegetable oil and grill cut-side down until marked, about 1 minute.
• Spread 3 tablespoons of the Peppadew mayonnaise on the bottom half of each roll, then spread 1 tablespoon blue cheese mixture on the top half. Slice the steak against the grain and divide among the rolls.

GOAT CHEESE STUFFED PEPPADEWS

Steps:

• Drain peppers and set aside. Mix the goat cheese and chives in a small bowl. Use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons of goat cheese to fill each peppadew with cheese mixture. Arrange on a serving platter, sprinkle more chives on top if desired.
• Enjoy!

GOAT CHEESE-STUFFED PEPPADEWS

Steps:

• Drain Peppadews upside down on a rack. If necessary, and taking care not to slice peppers open, pare bottoms so they sit flat. In a food processor, blend cheeses, scallions and 2 tablespoons parsley. In a bowl, season cheese mixture with salt and black pepper. Fill a pastry bag (or resealable bag with a corner snipped) with cheese mixture; chill 1 hour. Pipe cheese evenly into each pepper. Sprinkle tops with remaining 2 tablespoons parsley. DO AHEAD: You can prep the cheese filling 24 hours in advance and store it in the bag in the fridge; remove it 1/2 hour before needed. Stuffed peppers can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours.
