Time 20m

Yield 30 dates, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

30 small deglet noor dates
1/4 lb spanish chorizo (NOT Mexican chorizo!!!)
1/4 lb semifirm spanish goat's milk cheese, preferably cabra al vino

Steps:

  • Using a small, sharp knife, cut a lengthwise slit in each date, from the top to the bottom, and remove the pit.
  • Pull off the casing from the chorizo. Cut the chorizo and cheese each into 30 thin strips that will fit inside the dates.
  • Insert a strip of chorizo and a strip of cheese into each date and press the slit closed.
  • Arrange the dates on a serving platter. The platter can be covered and left at room temperature for several hours before serving.
  • Serve the appetizers with or without toothpicks.
