AMERICAN FLAG FRUIT AND CHEESE TRAY



American Flag Fruit and Cheese Tray image

I guess I saw this idea somewhere on Pintrest, but not sure where. I did switch things up and used different fruits. It's more of an idea than a recipe. Feel free to use whatever fruits/cheeses strike your fancy. Tried this for our 4th of July picnic. Super easy, fun, and a different twist on the flag cake or jello. This way I could serve something chocolate for dessert and there was still fruit for those who wanted it.

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 30m

Yield 1 Tray, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

red fruit (strawberries, red grapes, raspberries etc..)
blue fruit (blueberries, purple grapes etc..)
white fruit (white grapes, honeydew etc...)
white block(s) cheese

Steps:

  • Plan and purchase what fruits and cheeses you want to use. Think about whether you are going to prep this ahead or serve it immediately as that may change what fruit you would use or how you would prepare them. Ie. I would'nt put bananas on this if I wanted to prepare it ahead of time etc.
  • Prep fruit as needed. I hulled and halved the strawberries, chopped the honeydew, but I left the grapes and blueberries whole. Do what works for you.
  • Cut cheese into cubes.
  • Line tray with foil or plastic wrap if desired.
  • Place blue fruits in a square bowl or platter and place at the top left corner of your tray. If you don't have a square bowl etc. just lay the blue fruit in the top left corner in a square pattern.
  • Lay the red fruit out in stripes across the tray. You could do a stripe of just one fruit or mix the red fruits together and lay them out.
  • Fill in the white stripes with white cheese cubes and/or white fruits.
  • If not serving immediately, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.

FRUIT AND CHEESE PLATTER



Fruit And Cheese Platter image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h30m

Yield According to the amount of ingredients

Number Of Ingredients 18

Fig leaves
Creamy goat cheese, such as Fleur Verte
Bunch of grapes
Fig Preserves, recipe follows
English Oat Crackers, recipe follows
2 teaspoons grated orange zest (2 oranges)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
3 3/4 cups sugar
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
2 pounds fresh ripe purple figs, stems removed and halved lengthwise
3 cups old-fashioned oats, such as Quaker
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 pound (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, 1/2-inch-diced
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup lukewarm water
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Line a wooden board or flat dish with fig leaves and artfully arrange the goat cheese, grapes, preserves and crackers on top.
  • Place the orange zest and orange juice in a medium (10-inch) heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Add the sugar, vanilla bean, and figs to the pot. Cover and bring to a full boil over medium heat. (Don't worry; it may look dry.) Stir the mixture and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Lower the heat, and cook uncovered at a full simmer for 50 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want the little bubbles to be throughout the pot, not just at the edges. After 45 minutes, refrigerate a small amount of the liquid to see if it becomes syrupy. It should be like a soft fruit preserve. Keep cooking just until the liquid starts to gel when cold. If the liquid is too firm, add a little orange juice or water, cook for a minute, and test it again until it's right. Depending on how ripe the figs are, they will probably keep their shape, but it's fine if they don't. Discard the vanilla bean and serve or refrigerate.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • Place the oats, flour, brown sugar, and kosher salt in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse for 45 to 60 seconds, until the oats are coarsely ground. Add the butter and pulse 15 to 20 times, until the butter is the size of peas.
  • Dissolve the baking soda in the lukewarm water and drizzle it over the crumbs in the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is evenly moistened and can be pressed into balls that will hold together.
  • With a medium (1 3/4-inch) ice cream scoop or two spoons, scoop the dough into your hands and roll them into round balls. Evenly space 12 balls on the prepared sheet pans. Flour the bottom of a flat-bottomed 3-inch-diameter drinking glass and use it to flatten each cracker to 1/8 inch thick and about 3 inches in diameter. The crackers will not be perfectly round. If there is a lot of flour on the crackers, turn them over with a metal spatula. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown on the edges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
