About Petite basque
Petite Basque is a semi-soft sheep’s milk cheese from France, specifically inspired by Basque traditions. With a pale yellow rind and a smooth, creamy interior, it offers mild, nutty, and slightly tangy flavors that pair well with fruits, whole-grain crackers, or charcuterie. Made from pasteurized sheep’s milk, it retains beneficial proteins and calcium while being easier to digest for some compared to cow’s milk cheeses. Petite Basque is lower in fat than many aged cheeses, making it a reasonable option for those mindful of dietary indulgence. However, it is still high in saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is key to enjoying its creamy richness without exceeding dietary limits. Perfect for Mediterranean-inspired meals or as a snack, this cheese is an excellent way to explore the robust flavor profile of traditional French cuisine while balancing taste and nutrition.
