Whipped cottage cheese with fresh strawberries and pistachio vinaigrette.
Fresh, light and yet full of flavour – this whipped cottage cheese with strawberries and green vinaigrette is a real summer hit.
Creamy cottage cheese and sweet, sun-ripened strawberries are paired with a fresh, sharp vinaigrette of chopped pistachios, mint and basil. The dressing is made with olive oil, lime juice, a little lime zest and honey – and together it strikes the finest balance between sweetness, acidity, freshness and crunch.
This dish is incredibly easy to make, but it should be enjoyed as soon as it is plated. The acidity from the lime can start to split the whipped cottage cheese if it stands for too long – so make it just before serving.
You can serve it as a fresh, green starter with good bread – or as a side with chicken or pork, for example. It works really well on a summer table, both for guests and as a little treat on a weeknight. A small, elegant dish that tastes of sun and summer in the very best way.

Tror du ikke man kan piske hytteosten og sæt på køl og så blande honning, olie, lime mm sammen og så lige inden servering så blande det samme??
Tak for gode opskrifter
Hej Carina
Jo måske, hvis du pisker det i med et piskeris – det er da et forsøg værd 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
Super lækker og helt klart noget der skal arbejdes med igen. Jeg havde ikke alle ingredienserne så valgte cashew i stedet.
