How to cook :

Heat broiler to low. Spoon 1 teaspoon cheese into each date; wrap with a basil leaf, then a prosciutto strip. Secure with a toothpick. Broil until cheese bubbles, about 3 minutes. Serve warm.



Wine suggestion:

an aperitif wine : a AOC Pommeau de Normandy - Apreval - 2/3 apple juice & 1/3 calvados - Apreval’s Pommeau de Normandie is produced by assembling 2/3 of selected apple juice and 1/3 of Calvados (apple liquor aged in oak barrels). This creates an aperitif of alcohol content slightly higher than a wine of medium sweetness, and with wonderfull aromas of apple with a touch of oak. To be enjoyed as an aperitif.

Bon appétit
