 Dolce Gorgonzola Tenderloin Recipe compliments ofHard-core Foodie Joseph Bean What you'll need Dolce Gorgonzola Topping
Tenderloin Medallions
Garnishes and plating
Instructions Make and plate this recipe as an appetizer course: You can use real filet mignons (cut into pieces and squeezed into shape), or make this with tenderloin tip, the tail of the tenderloin the filets have already been cut from. Slice the tip into sections about tall enough to accommodate a wrap of bacon, then wrap with your favorite bacon. Fry the meat in a high-heat skillet, rolling the pieces on their bacon edges. Then, for less than a minute per side, brown the beef. Let the meat rest while you mix the topping. To each three ounces of Dolce Gorgonzola, add one large minced clove of garlic; enough sour cream to make a lumpy, but creamy glop, and less salt and white pepper than you think you need. Slice the wrapped beef, put each slice on a round of baguette, a nice cracker or a broken piece of lavosh. Top with dolce gorgonzola mix and garnish each appetizer with an herb leaf (parsley, Thai basil and tender sage are good) or well drained slices of peppadew, cornichon, brine-cured olive or, for a super treat, garnish with French Fig Preserve with Bay Leaves. Enjoy!Ph. 808.874.3930

 Solena Pinot Gris, McMinville, Oregon New in our wine cellar after discovery at Joe’s Bar and Grill, we welcome Solena Pinot Gris from McMinville, Oregon. Tropical mango and pineapple nuances on the nose, fruity on the initial palate…actually dances on your palate and loves to romance with Northern Italy's Robiola. Robiola is a two animal milk cheese, sheep and cow, which is brie-like in nature. When quite ripe it rivals any Normandy Camebert! What a delightful marriage discovered at our Wine for Cheesemongers Monthly Course.
New face in the case! Belfiore’s Farmer Cheese … a wonderful alternative to over processed cream cheese! Refreshing, fluffy, and light! It was a great inspiration for our new smoked trout spread… a little smokey with a citrusy finish. Deeeeelicious! Available in 8oz and 16oz. Only $19.99/lb. The farmer cheese is a great addition or substitute for ricotta in your favorite lasagna or eggplant parmesan recipe.
