    FAQ & TIPS ABOUT GOAT CHEESE

    Is goat cheese healthy?

    Goat cheese is easier to digest than regular cow milk cheese. It's also a good source of protein, calcium, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. The fatty acid of goat milk also has
    antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.

    Where do I find goat cheese?

    Goat cheese can be easily found in every grocery store or cheesemonger. Some brands also call it Chèvre, in French.

    What are some types of goat cheese?

    Just like cow or sheep cheese, there are many types of goat cheese too. The most used in the recipes above is the fresh goat cheese, usually sold in a log shape and in similar consistency to cream cheese (just a bit more crumbly). But you can also find aged, flavored, or hard goat cheese. These types are usually eaten on their own or on cheese boards, not used in recipes.
