Benedictine Spread

From the book The Blue Ribbon Cook Book by

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. cucumber juice
1 Tbsp. onion juice
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 tsp. salt
~ Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 drops green food coloring (optional)

Steps

  1. To make the cucumber juice, peel and grate a cucumber; discard peelings. Wrap the pulp in a clean dish towel and squeeze juice into a dish. Do the same for the onion.
  2. Mix all ingredients with a fork until well blended. (Using a blender will make the spread too thin.)
