In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make an Edible Cheese Tray with Four Cheeses. This tray is made of puff pastry that has been seasoned with herbs and spices. This is a delightful way to serve fancy cheeses at a dinner party! Ingredients: 1 egg 2 teaspoons water 1 sheet puff pastry dough from a 17.3-oz. package, thawed 1 teaspoon seasoned black pepper, to taste (or seasoning of your choice) sprigs of rosemary and parsley (or any fresh or dried herbs that you like) about 4 varied types of cheese, presented in an interesting configuration (I used packaged pimiento cheese, muenster cheese, mozzarella medallions, and Dutch cheese with cumin seed.) In a small bowl, place 1 egg and 2 teaspoons water and beat well. Set aside. Unfold the thawed sheet of puff pastry and place it in an ungreased shallow baking pan. Brush the top side with egg mixture. Cut 4 (1/2-inch-wide) strips from the pastry, cutting parallel to the seam of the pastry. (I cut 2 from each side for symmetry.) Remove the 4 strips and place them along the edge of the puff pastry, trimming ends. With a fork, prick the bottom of the pastry, allowing steam to escape as the pastry cooks. Sprinkle the bottom of the pastry with 1 teaspoon seasoned black pepper or other seasoning of your choice. Gently press fresh rosemary and parsley sprigs into the bottom to make an artistic design. Bake for 6 minutes at 400 degrees F. Prick bottom of pastry again, to let any air escape from underneath the pastry while baking

THANK YOU! www.chefshauniece.com Twitter@ShaunieceCooks Recipe: What you’ll need: (This makes6-8 tarts) 1 package of Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets 2 large ripe tomatoes cut into 1/4in slices 1/2 cup of goat cheese 1/2 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced 2 large cloves of garlic thinly sliced 1 tablespoons of thyme leaves sea salt and freshly cracked pepper 1/4 cup of thinly sliced basil Olive oil Here’s How to Make it: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F First saute you onions in about 3 tablespoons of olive oil, on medium low heat, stirring occasionally to make sure they’re not burning. About 20 minutes In the meantime, roll out each sheet of puff pastry into an 11in by 11in square. Using a round object about 5in in diameter, cut out 8 rounds. Using smaller round object as a guide and a sharp paring knife, score a 1/4-inch-wide border inside each pastry circle. Prick the pastry inside the score lines with a fork and sprinkle a tablespoon of grated Parmesan on each round, staying inside the scored border. Set aside To the caramelizing onions add the garlic and thyme. Cook until garlic is soft.. Divide the onion mixture evenly on top of the tarts. Top with goat cheese, tomato, salt and pepper, basil and more Parmesan (if preferred). Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until edges are puffed up and golden brown. Enjoy!
