Vermont Creamery Cranberry & Tarragon Crumbled Goat Cheese

What it is

This is a soft, fresh goat cheese that has been crumbled and infused with the flavors of dried cranberries and tarragon. The cheese is made from pasteurized goat's milk and has a characteristic tangy and slightly earthy taste. The addition of cranberries brings a touch of sweetness and fruitiness, while the tarragon provides a subtle, anise-like herbaceous note. The crumbled texture makes it easy to incorporate into various dishes.

How people cook with it

This versatile cheese is perfect for adding a burst of flavor to both sweet and savory preparations.

  • Salad topping
  • Cheese board addition
  • Stuffing for poultry
  • Pasta garnish

Gently sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese over salads, such as mixed greens with nuts and a vinaigrette, to add a creamy and flavorful element. It can be used to stuff chicken breasts or pork tenderloin before roasting, providing a moist and savory filling. For appetizers, arrange it on a cheese board with crackers, fruits, and nuts. It also works well stirred into warm pasta dishes or sprinkled over roasted vegetables like Brussels sprouts or sweet potatoes just before serving.

How it differs from similar foods

Unlike plain goat cheese, this variety offers a complex flavor profile with the sweet-tartness of cranberries and the distinct aroma of tarragon. The crumbled form also provides a different texture and easier distribution compared to a whole log or wheel of goat cheese.

Who it is for

Home cooks and entertainers who enjoy adding unique and flavorful ingredients to their meals.

How to keep the rest
