I learned how to make basic goat cheese when I lived in the country. You have to be super careful about using sterile equipment but it wasn't difficult and it was so satisfying to turn a gallon of milk into a nice round cheese.
My personal favorite is the Cypress Grove Chèvre Humboldt Fog, which they had here too, it's the one with the line of ash in the center, phenomenal cheese!
@@markbradakis5521 Whoa, what a treat! I can even just pick at it alone, it's so good. Also nice on some sour dough toast shmeared on with a tiny drizzle of honey once in a while :)
I adore goat cheese. I was raising the country on a small farm, but we did not have goats. They were sort of the “dirty animal” in our estimation. I grew up decided I wanted fresh milk, but didn’t have the ability to care of a cow so buy a couple of goats. The two goats grew into nine does and two bucks. Had I have had the finances and the room I probably would have an unlimited herd. Lol I fell crazy in love with them and bred them for their milk and their babies. I love their milk. I love their cheese,it’s just wonderful. Lol.
At a cheese shop in Paris, the guy asked us if we were feeling adventurous and well, of course we were! That goat cheese, I kid you not, smelled like paint thinner. The rind was so far beyond pungent. The creamy cheese inside tasted great comparatively, but we didn't rush out to buy more. I still love trying new cheese so I'll seek out some Bûcheron. Thanks ATK!
The best goat cheese comes from artisanal heirloom goats raised in Mongolia by a small sect of blind nuns. Yes, I have to have it air-lifted to ensure freshness but it's a small price to pay for having the very best. I simply refuse to serve my guests anything less.
I love goat cheese especially since I am allergic to cow’s milk. Great episode. Pairing suggestions would be a great addition, or part two, for this informative episode.❤
Some goat cheese is really funky and others are mild. I was hoping to learn about how to choose different flavor variations, but this was more on different countries and styles.
DID YOU KNOW - You can use pre shredded cheese for melting IF you rinse it well with cold water BEFORE you use it and then dry the cheese. The added cellulose or starch added will dissolve in the water. I dry it in a salad spinner.
A good quality cheese is not going to come in a shredded form, from a manufacturer, coated in anti-caking agents. This is also a messy. I've talked to people who've done it & they say never again. There's multiple tools now-a-days that make shredding your own cheese very easy & quick...& they don't make a mushy mess. There's also recipes you don't want any water to get into which means waiting for all that cheese to completely dry out on towels all over the counter. By the time you do all that you could have freshly shredded a lot of higher quality, better tasting cheese with no worries of anti-caking agents making it not melt well or going into your body.
It might help you to try it more than once. That’s like getting sick from poorly cooked fish your first time and thinking that’s indicative of the food in general lol

Thank you for not saying "which goat is the G.O.A.T." in the video, I know that took a lot of restraint.
They are too old for that lol.
If you turn subtitles on it’s actually there a couple of times

Indeed! U bought a whole wheel of cheese, split it with a friend. I was in cheese heaven for days!

I'd love to see a tasting of our domestic goat cheeses. Capriole Goat Cheese is amazing!

You "kid."
My favorite goat cheese is ekte geitost, a type of caramelized Scandinavian breakfast cheese. It’s so good thinly sliced on buttered toast.
This cast is great to spend time with and learn from.
Thank you, Jack, and thank you ladies.
I need to find a place I can buy some of the varieties besides the first one they showed. Looks delicious.

Firefly Farms out of the western part of Maryland makes the best goat cheeses period. I will never say no to their cheeses.
I love goat 🐐 cheese 🧀. So excited to watch this.
Not kidding around. 😂 She nailed it!
Countdown to right wing people calling you a groomer for making a joke about a child goat

All looks very yummy 😋
Anthing from Laclare creamery in Wisconsin, is excellent!
My favorite way to enjoy Goat Cheese is as a topping for chili. Similar to sour cream, it packs a punch and makes my chili addictive
Love goat cheese! I think my favorites are goat cheddar and goat Camembert, but love ‘em all.

Just started milking my goats and made a habanero cheddar 🧀 aging in my cave..

Thank you!
Drunken Goat is creamy greatness!
some feta is also from goat
HUMMMBOLDT FOG: that's the only one I've had. I wish I could get the others where I live.
What is the name of the one Bridget liked the best?
I'm pretty sure it's Bucheron.
Tried goat cheese once (the long white tube one) and it had a strong mold flavor that I wasn’t a fan of!

Oh my goodness! Is there anything more inviting than nice Frommage Bucheron? Make it known!

I've only tasted goat cheese twice and I did not like it because it was so sour. Is there one that isn't as pungent?
Goat cheese is the goat of cheese
❤❤❤❤
Oh, Napoleon, you crazy cat! 😅

Just what I was going to say! I love it!! 😊

My aunt had goats and the cheese is superior to dairy in my opinion.
