Day 6 of National Afternoon Tea Week🫖
Today we are having Mango Chutney Apple Tea Sandwich & Gunpowder Green Tea
This pairing succeeds by using smoke to anchor a vibrant clash of sweet, salt, and acid. Gunpowder Green’s heavy, toasted smokiness cuts straight through the sharp, lactic tang of fresh goat cheese. Instead of fighting the mango chutney, the tea’s savory undertone acts as a bold backdrop, framing the fruit’s sweet brightness. Finally, the crisp, vegetal finish matches the clean snap of the fresh apple, perfectly cleansing the palate after every rich bite.
Recipe:
Yields: 6 triangles
Ingredients:
3-4tblsp Mango Chutney
1 Honey Crisp Apple, sliced
8oz Goat Cheese, softened
1 loaf Brioche Bread
Directions:
Spread goat cheese over the bread and then add a layer of the mango chutney. Followed by apple slices. Add another piece of bread over top.
With a sharp knife, cut off the crust and then cut into triangles.
