National Goat Cheese Month is here, and we’re diving headfirst into all things ch\u00e8vre!

1. Make an all-ch\u00e8vre cheese plate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There’s no better way to show your undying love of goat cheese than by eating it! Back in 2018, we asked cheesemonger Lillith Spencer to curate an all-ch\u00e8vre cheese plate<\/a> with some of their favorite goaties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI love how much goat cheese changes,\u201d says Spencer. \u201cA soft goat cheese starts out bright and tangy, but becomes nuttier and more savory as it ages. Harder goat cheeses lose almost all acidity and become milky, toasty, and caramel-sweet, like dulce de leche.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get all five pairings here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Visit a goat dairy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re a DIY-er, try making your own goat cheese. This recipe for blue goat cheese logs<\/a> only requires five ingredients and is a great way to level-up your cheesemaking skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“If you\u2019ve already crafted fresh cheeses\u2014ricotta, fromage blanc, paneer, and so on\u2014the following recipe is a small step beyond what you already know. Start with ch\u00e8vre, add some blue mold spores, shape the drained curd into logs, ripen them for a week or two, and behold: finished cheeses that are not only beautifully blue but also tangy and a wee bit funky.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
