Goat cheese

 

The production of goat cheese is a centuries old tradition. In many parts of the world, most notably in France, many excellent cheeses are made by small producers right on their own farms. Made from goat’s milk, fresh goat cheese has a unique, slightly tart flavor and a smooth, creamy texture that wins over even the most goat-fearing sceptics.

Goat cheeses have achieved renown for the seductive way in which they combine with other flavors. They have become a staple of chefs and food lovers because of their versatility. Goat cheese is delicious eaten straight out of the wrapper but is also a welcome addition to anything from lasagna to salads to cheesecake. Whether mild and creamy, or with a flavour that can range from tangy to nutty or even mushroomy, these cheeses can be enjoyed either on their own or as part of a cooked dish.

They are perfect paired with fruit or braised vegetables. Their mildness gives them an incomparable versatility - every new ingredient brings out another aspect of their character.
