Fromage de Chèvre, or goat cheese, is a creamy, tangy cheese traditionally crafted from goat's milk. Renowned for its versatility in Mediterranean and French cuisine, it has a distinct flavor that varies based on aging, with young varieties being softer and milder and aged types offering sharper, robust notes. Nutritionally, goat cheese is a rich source of protein, calcium, and essential vitamins like B2 and A. It’s often praised for being easier to digest than cow's milk cheeses due to its lower lactose content and smaller fat molecules. Additionally, its lower sodium and cholesterol levels make it a favorable choice for those monitoring heart health. However, some aged varieties may contain higher levels of saturated fat, so portion control is key. Whether crumbled on salads or spread over bread, Fromage de Chèvre brings a delightful balance of flavor and nutrition to any dish.
