INSTRUCTIONS
* Note: See the "Green Olive Pesto" recipe which is included in this
collection.
Roll goat cheese into four balls roughly the size of golf balls. Roll balls
in a plate covered with Green Olive Pesto, tapping and rolling so that
pesto adheres in a thin layer. Roll olive pesto-coated goat cheese balls in
a plate covered with chopped parsley, until coated. Set aside. Bring two
quarts of water to a boil. Drop squash cubes into boiling water and cook
until soft yet still firm (about 5 to 6 minutes). Drain in a colander over
sink and refresh with cold water until cool. Toss squash cubes with 4
ounces of the extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, scallions, and
mustard seeds. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide and arrange
squash salad in center of four plates. Place one goat cheese truffle in
center of each plate and drizzle with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
and serve. This recipe yields 4 servings.
