INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a large 12- to 14-inch saute pan over medium-high heat and add 2
tablespoons of the butter. The butter should sputter and begin to brown
immediately. When the butter stops sputtering, but before it turns very
dark brown, add the apples. Continue to cook 3 to 4 minutes until softened
yet still retaining their shape. Add sugar, nutmeg and wine and cook 1
minute. Add 2 tablespoons cold butter and shake the pan to completely blend
the butter into the wine mixture, forming a creamy emulsion. Spoon the
apples into a shallow serving dish. Shave the Asiago cheese into paper thin
shards over the apple mixture using a peeler or a shovel nose cheese knife.
Serve warm. This recipe yields 4 servings as dessert or cheese course.
