This is one of my favorite recipes. The flavors of the cooked sake, garlic, soy sauce, and ginger blend together perfectly. It is important to have some crusty country bread to soak up all the juices-your guests will fight each other for the last heel of bread in order to do this.
Shrimp are generally not overfished because they grow quickly and have a short lifespan. The problem with shrimp fishing is that there is a tendency to trawl up other marine wildlife in shrimp nets. So your most sustainable choice will almost always be U.S. farmed shrimp, with the exception of wild-caught Key West and Oregon pink shrimp. Imported shrimp rank very poorly in terms of sustainability.

These stuffed dates are a simple and easy appetizer that are absolutely delicious! The sweetness of the date paired with the creamy cheese and salty prosciutto are a party in your mouth! You can pull this appetizer together in 15 minutes. Do not overcook the dates or the cheese will run everywhere. They are best served right out of the oven.

This recipe is incredibly simple to prepare. It may take all of 15-20 minutes, if that. In the summer I add grilled stone fruit like peaches, nectarines, apricots or plums which add a wonderful contrast to the saltiness of the gorgonzola cheese.
Serves 6-8 as an appetizer
Ingredients:
1 Baguette - sliced on the diagonal into in 1/4" - 1/2" slices (about 10 - 12 slices) 3-4 tablespoons olive oil 4-6 oz of soft Gorgonzola honey - enough to drizzle over bruschetta slices
