Savory Verrines
These colorful verrines layer savory and sweet ingredients into individual glass cups for a dish that’s as elegant as it is unexpected. Wild rice in a balsamic vinaigrette forms the base, followed by a creamy corn-feta blend, finely grated carrots, and a bright finish of Subarashii Kudamono Asian Pear Spread. Topped with fresh chives, they’re light, flavorful, and perfect for entertaining or a vibrant first course.
Makes 6 verrines.
