It's summer and my wine of choice is Rose - all day. I recently partnered with 90 Plus Cellars to bring you this delicious recipe. It's cheesy and slightly sweet - and with caramelized onions, it adds such a beautiful umami flavor that we all know and love.
Ok, let's talk about this Rose!! This gorgeous wine is made from 100% organically farmed Grenache and Cinsault grapes. It has a subtle floral flavor with notes of berries and fennel. Towards the end, there's bit of acidity which goes so well with this recipe. It's light, bright, and perfect for summer!
lets make this smoked gouda and caramelized onion puff pastry
This is a very easy recipe to make. We begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees F and cutting about 10 figs in half and adding them to a pan with brown sugar, butter, and a pinch of salt. Mix it up and add it to the oven for about 20 minutes. While the figs are roasting, slice an onion and add olive oil and butter to a skillet over medium low heat. Add the onions and saute for 10 minutes. Add a tiny bit of water and honey and continue to cook over medium low heat until onions are jammy and brown.
Grab a sheet of puff pastry add shredded smoke gouda to the center of the pastry and add the onions on top. Fold the pastry corners in toward the center and brush with an egg and bake for 20-23 minutes. Add to a plate with the brown sugar roasted figs and eat!
