White Bean and Herb Olive Oil Cheesecake
About Olive Oil featured Melanie Underwood’s White Bean and Herb Olive Oil Cheesecake from Making Artisan Cheesecake, a savory recipe that uses classic cheesecake technique in a completely different direction.
A savory cheesecake built on technique
The recipe combines cream cheese with a white bean purée and finishes the cheesecake with herb-infused olive oil. The result demonstrates how the familiar structure of cheesecake can become a savory course rather than a dessert.
The technique stays consistent
Even when the flavor profile changes, the fundamentals remain the same: gentle mixing, a water bath, controlled baking and enough chilling time for the cheesecake to set properly.
From Making Artisan Cheesecake
The feature shows the range of Melanie’s cookbook work—using a well-understood base technique as a platform for experimentation rather than treating cheesecake as one fixed formula.
