Ingredients
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 pound carrots trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 48 pistachios shelled
- 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese divided
- 24 Breton Original Crackers
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
Instructions
-
Place a medium saucepan over high heat. Add broth and carrots and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover. Simmer until carrots are very tender, about 30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, place pistachios in a dry, heavy skillet over medium heat. Toast about 2 minutes or until fragrant. Toss frequently to avoid burning.
-
When the carrots are done cooking, add 1/4 cup goat cheese to the saucepan and allow it to melt. Use an immersion blender to puree the carrots, liquid, and goat cheese.
-
To assemble your hors d'oeuvres, spread each cracker with about 1 tablespoon of carrot puree. Sprinkle lightly with remaining goat cheese and tarragon and top each cracker with 2 pistachios.
