Time is on your side with me, because I am a no muss, no fuss hors d’oeuvre fueled with a short stack of fiery sweetness that makes for a real razzle dazzle. A small round baguette slice serves as my perfect pedestal with a flaky crust and a soft center, which has been painted snow white with heavenly smooth goat cheese. Jagged leaves of peppery arugula unfold to decorate my ivory blanket of cheese with a bold layer of fresh green crispness.
Now, for the exotic and most paramount component of my appetizer - the magical piquanté pepper (whose red appearance resembles a larger version of a cherry tomato with firmer skin) - is sliced in half and placed atop my leafy greens. When you pop my textural and tasty creation into your mouth, you will absorb a kaleidoscope of sweet and spicy dramatic kicks dancing around with creamy and peppery flavors that propel you into a world of culinary bliss.
What I’ve heard from my audience: “Can I take some leftovers home to share?”
What I later found out from my audience: “What I intended to share ended up being devoured during the care ride home. I simply couldn’t help myself!”
