Frequently Asked Questions
What makes goat cheese taste better?
Nessler explains that keeping male and female goats apart and maintaining freshness are also crucial: "The older goat milk is when it is processed, the goatier the cheese will taste." The males release strong-smelling hormones during breeding season, which can impart a goaty flavour to the females' milk and the cheese they produce.
What does honey goat cheese taste like?
Made with pure goat milk and a drizzle of honey for a nutty sweetness akin to cashews. Lightly sweet, flavorful, and lacking in strength or salt. Simple to cut into slices, grate, or cubes; great in salads or as a fruit snack.
What does goat cheese pair well with?
It goes well with sliced fennel and sausage, apples and hot peppers, sweet corn and prosciutto, or caramelised onions and mushrooms. It is the ideal creamy and lemony accent to bring brightness to pizza.
