One of our favorite restaurants in Chile is Fuegos de Apalta (Fires of Apalta) in the Colchagua Valley. It was opened by celebrity chef Francis Mallmann in 2017. Here is one of his recipes.
1 teaspoon sherry or red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon merquén or smoked paprika (optional)
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup coarsely grated queso fresco or crumbled
feta (about 5 oz.)
Baby greens, such as arugula,
kale, or spinach, and lemon
wedges, for serving
