Steps

1. ### Brigidtes Shrimp or Tuna Mousse Cheese Recipe: A Perfect Snack or Appetizer
3. #### Introduction:
4. Brigidtes are a delightful appetizer or snack that combine the richness of cheese with the flavors of seafood. This recipe offers a twist on traditional brigidtes by incorporating shrimp or tuna, creating a light yet satisfying mousse that is perfect for parties or casual gatherings.
6. #### Ingredients (for 20 servings):
7. - 1 cup shredded white cheddar or smoked Gouda cheese
8. - 3 cups cooked and flaked shrimp (or drained, well-flaked canned tuna)
9. - 1/4 cup mayonnaise
10. - 2 tbsp milk or cream
11. - 1 tsp lemon juice
12. - Salt and pepper to taste
13. - Fresh herbs like parsley or dill for garnish
15. #### Step-by-Step Guide:
17. 1. **Prepare the Shrimp (or Tuna)**
18. - If using shrimp, cook them in a pan until pink and fully cooked.
19. - Let cool, then flake them into small pieces with your fingers or use kitchen shears to break them up finely.
21. 2. **Melt the Cheese**
22. - In a medium bowl, melt the shredded cheese by microwaving it for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each session until fully melted and smooth.
23. - Alternatively, you can place the cheese in a double boiler over low heat to melt gently without burning.
25. 3. **Mix Ingredients Together**
26. - Once the cheese is melted, mix it with the mayonnaise, milk (or cream), lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
27. - Gradually fold in the flaked shrimp or tuna ensuring the mixture is evenly distributed and smooth.
29. 4. **Adjust Flavors**
30. - Taste the mousse and adjust the seasoning if necessary. A few additional dashes of lemon juice can brighten up the flavor profile.
32. 5. **Chill Before Serving**
33. - Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to an hour before serving.
34. - This chilling period allows the flavors to meld together, making the brigidtes creamier.
36. 6. **Assemble Brigidtes**
37. - Take small rounds of cheese (about 1-inch diameter) and place them on a plate or baking sheet.
38. - Spoon a small amount of the shrimp or tuna mousse onto each piece of cheese, shaping it into a neat ball or spreading it out slightly to resemble a brigdie shape.
40. 7. **Garnish and Serve**
41. - Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill for a pop of color and freshness.
42. - Serve chilled as an appetizer at parties or gatherings, or enjoy them anytime you crave something light yet satisfying.
44. #### Tips:
45. - Use high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor. Freshly cooked shrimp or canned tuna in water are preferable over those in oil.
46. - For a richer texture, replace some of the mayonnaise with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
47. - Experiment with different types of cheese like blue cheese or feta for a unique twist.
49. #### Conclusion:
50. Brigidtes made from shrimp or tuna mousse cheese offer a delightful way to enjoy seafood without the heaviness. Perfect for sharing and impressing guests, these brigidtes are a versatile recipe that can be customized according to your taste preferences. Enjoy creating this delicious appetizer!
