Method

  • 1. Using an electric mixer, beat cheeses and tabasco together until creamy. Stir through the sundried tomatoes and season to taste.

  • 2. Sprinkle herbs and nuts in a square onto a 25cm piece of plastic wrap, leaving a 2cm clear border.

  • 3. Spoon cheese mixture along one end of the herb mixture. Lift wrap and roll cheese away from you into a log, pressing wrap gently in to the cheese to coat well. Twist ends of wrap to seal, then chill for 1 hour until firm.

  • 4. Remove from wrap, serve with crackers.

  • Tip: For a tasty fruit and nut version, add ¼ cup chopped dried apricots to the cheese mixture instead of the sundried tomatoes.
