Plains Cheese Ring

StarStarStarStarHalf star

Submitted by charthom

One of Mrs. Carter’s favorite recipes was for a simple cheddar cheese mold. Served in a ring to be spread on crackers, the cheese appetizer was prepared for many of the Carter’s family dinners and some of their official functions. One unusual ingredient was the strawberry preserves served in the centre of the ring.
