Gooey Saint Marcellin
Saint Marcellinis a small cheese that was originally made in the Rhone Alpes region of France. It has a very thin rind so is usually kept in a small crock. As it ages, it develops a gooey texture. When it is warmed a little, Oh My, it is a runny delight! Check out the recipe.
Wine Soaked Cabra Al Vino
Cabra Al Vino is mild, semi-hard cheese with a starkly red contrasting rind against the pure white color of the goat milk curd. It makes about a one pound wheel which can be ready in as little as three 3 weeks and will age in a regular refrigerator, in a ripening box, for up to 3 months. The flavor is mild, lightly acidic, fruity and very much shows the influence of the wine soak. Just a really delightful cheese. Check out the recipe.
Ash Coated Valençay
Valencay is a decadent French-style soft goat cheese that comes with its own mythology explaining its unique pyramidal shape. The flavor is an extraordinarily complex and delicious mixture of goaty tanginess and soft brie like texture and flavor with a salty, ashed rind that gives a little bite to the palate. It is a great intermediate level cheese. Check out the recipe.
