Classic Cheese Spread From Leftover Cheese
August/September 2013
By Marilyn Foley
Almost everyone inevitably finds small, dried out or moldy bits of cheese forgotten in some remote corner of the refrigerator. A Danish friend of mine explained to me that you can use these old bits of cheese to make what she called potkäse (potted cheese).
To make this cheese spread, cut off any mold or inedible rind and then finely grate the remaining piece. Put these cheese shavings into a glass jar and cover them with any kind of liquor. My friend’s favorites were aquavit and rum, but any hard liquor will do for this purpose. All manner of hard cheeses can be mixed together in this fashion. Just stir the mixture periodically and you will end up with a yummy gourmet treat that is nice enough to serve as a delightful spread at parties — and all made from leftover bits of food you would have otherwise thrown away!
