Directions
Angel of Death Cheese Spread, Supposely because of the large amount of garlic in this recipe it is bound to keep away the angel of death–thought this sounded interesting and delicious and although I haven’t made this yet I will be making this cheese soon Recipe source: Bon Appetit (May 1981), This is delicious! I skipped the walnuts and used fresh oregano instead of sage leaves Otherwise, followed directions—result was very pretty–the little leaves of oregano dotted over the surface of the cheese ball Very creamy and rich and despite the name, the garlic is not over-powering I do think the amount of cream should be reduced to 2/3 of a cup Thanks, Ellie! This is GREAT , This is delicious!
