Cheese - Bucheron

DESCRIPTION These logs of goat's milk cheese are aged for about 2 months and covered in a white fleurie similar to brie.  With a thick, chalky center and tart, almost lemon flavor this is a Loire valley classic.  Cut in circular plates, this is a fantastic cheese for cooking.  If you don't want to have too strong a goat flavor, mix in some ricotta to balance it out.   ORIGIN France   MILK TYPE Goat   RAW MILK OR PASTEURIZED? Pasteurized   STORAGE TIPS Refrigerate preferably in its own drawer close to where most of the produce is kept.  After each time that you slice the cheese, re-wrap it with fresh plastic wrap to extend the shelf life.  While some chefs will freeze a slice of blue and then grate it over a salad before serving, Chef's Mandala doesn't recommend freezing cheeses in general.   PEOPLE WHO PURCHASED THIS ALSO PURCHASED Cheese Plate By Cheese Type - Quebec 3 Year Cheddar and Ossau Iraty By Origin - Pont l'Eveque and Ossau-Iraty Pairings - pickles, dried figs, cucumber
