Recipe
Toss the pistachios, dried cranberries, the zest from about half an orange, and honey into a food processor and run it until you get a coarse mixture that sticks together. The ingredients are better incorporated this way and makes it easier if you’re working with whole pistachios. It would also look great on a holiday-themed charcuterie board with items like fanned apples and other snacks like popcorn or pretzels. The cranberries and pistachios make this cheese appetizer super festive and appropriate for a Thanksgiving and Christmas party. Serve the goat cheese at room temperature. This makes it easier to dig in to and spread on your favorite carbs like crackers or crostinis. To store the goat cheese log, wrap it in several tight layers of cling wrap. Take it out of the refrigerator up to 15 minutes before you’re ready to serve it so that it comes to room temperature. Drizzle it with an extra bit of honey to give it a refresh.
