- ¼ cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- 6 slices peeled fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce ((more or less, to taste))
- 12 ounces pecans, (finely chopped)
- 16 ounces soft goat cheese, (at room temperature)
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup arugula leaves (for garnish and display), (optional)
Langkah-langkah
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat. Combine the butter, syrup, ginger, water, ground ginger, salt, and Tabasco in a small saucepan and simmer over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon out the ginger and discard. Place the nuts in a bowl, pour the glaze over them and toss well to coat. Spread the nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake 20 to 30 minutes, stirring at 5 minute intervals, until the nuts are light and almost dry when you toss them. Timing will depend on your oven, so keep a close eye. Slide the parchment paper or Silpat off the baking sheet and onto a rack to cool the nuts completely.
Place the goat cheese in a bowl and stir in a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Roll the cheese into 24 small balls. Roll the balls in the spiced, baked nuts. Place the arugula on a platter and top with the coated truffles. These may be eaten on their own, or you can display crackers to be eaten with them.
