Instructions
- Start by washing the grapes thoroughly under cool water. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove any moisture; this will help the cheese mixture stick to the grapes better.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Gorgonzola and the creamy cheese you chose, like Ricotta or Mascarpone (I used Ricotta, but Mascarpone also works well for a richer taste).
- Use a spoon to stir and blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If needed, you can use the back of the spoon to press any lumps, ensuring the cheese mixture has a smooth texture for easier coating.
- Take a small spoon or use two teaspoons to scoop a bit of the Gorgonzola cream and carefully coat each grape. This creamy coating adds a burst of flavor and helps the pistachios stick to the grapes.
- Place the chopped pistachios on a plate or in a shallow bowl. Roll each cheese-coated grape in the pistachios, pressing lightly to ensure an even coating. The pistachios add a nice crunch and a beautiful green color that makes each piece look elegant.
- Once all the grapes are coated, place them on a serving plate and refrigerate for about 15 minutes. Chilling helps the cheese set and makes each bite refreshing. For serving, you can add a toothpick to each grape to make them easier to pick up. Arrange them on a platter for a party or serve individually on small plates if it’s part of a sit-down meal.
