Cheese / Dairy · Food pairing guide
What goes with Goat Cheese?
Goat cheese covers several styles, but the useful culinary constant is a vivid acid line carried by relatively delicate fat. Fresh logs crumble when cold and become creamy as they warm; aged or bloomy examples develop firmer, more savoury interiors. Sweet fruit, nuts and herbs soften the tang, while bitter leaves and roasted vegetables benefit from it. Excessive heat can split the fat and flatten the characteristic freshness.
