Directions
Garlic Pate (Pasta De Alho), From Jean Anderson’s The Food of Portugal If you ate this in Portugal, it would be made with some wonderful local cheese These recipe uses brie–a good substitute for those of us with no access to Portugese artisanal cheeses This would be served with Pao Torrado, a kind of melba toast Crostini from a baguette are just fine with this Or if the brie is rich enough for you, try it on slices of cucumber , Well F T you definatly have another winner theres NO doubt about that!!!! I gave this receipe a try over the wkned, and it was a total hit with my friends that I had over for Sunday Lunch I’m a garilic love and a cheese lover, so this was a great combination for me, LOVED ITTTTTT!!!!!! Wish I had some right NOW! LOL LOL Thank you for the excellenct Pate , As a garlic lover i knew i would like this but not that i would love it as much as i did Used a triple creme brie (bad for my diet but i skipped breakfast to save on calories) It is a keeper keeper keeper
