Apple, Hazelnut and Red Wine Cheese Salad Recipe
This salad is an adaptation of the ‘ensalada de manzanas con Murcia al Vino’ recipe, a traditional Spanish salad originating from Murcia. This version adds a touch of sweetness from orange blossom honey and uses an artisan goat’s and sheep’s milk cheese made with red wine mixed with the milk - rather than the traditional Murcia al Vino which is soaked in red wine to color the rind. The contrast of colors, textures and flavors is both stunning and delicious.
