Aged Comté (14-24 months) has a nutty flavor that pairs terrifically with cured ham like Prosciutto. Make this fast and delicious hors dʼoeuvre for your next party or picnic. *Tip: When serving Comté as an hors dʼoeuvre or on a cheese plate, be sure to let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving; this will allow for the fullest expression of flavors and aromas.
Ingredients
  • Aged Comté, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • Thinly sliced Prosciutto, cut into 1-inch strips
  • Roasted red peppers (fresh or from a jar), cut into ½-inch squares
  • Chervil, parsley or basil leaves
  • Roasted almonds for serving (optional)
Instructions
  1. Wrap each cube of Comté with a strip of Prosciutto. Place a piece of roasted pepper on top of the Comté, followed by a small chervil, parsley or basil leaf; skewer with a toothpick.
  2. Line the skewers on a platter and serve alongside a bowl of roasted almonds as a delicious hors dʼoeuvre or snack.
