How to cook deliciously - Marinated Cheese
1. Stage
Combine oil, vinegar, pimento, parsley, green onions, garlic, sugar, basil, salt, and pepper in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal the jar and shake vigorously to blend.
2. Stage
Cut Cheddar block in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices to form squares. Repeat with cream cheese.
3. Stage
Arrange cheese squares alternately in a shallow baking dish with slices standing on edge. (You can arrange in a single row or in two parallel rows, depending on the size of your dish.) Pour marinade from the jar over top, cover, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
4. Stage
To serve, transfer slices to a serving platter so they are still arranged in an alternating pattern. Spoon some of the extra marinade over top.
