Before serving, allow the cheese to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This softens the texture and enhances the flavor. It can be served as is on a cheese board, spread onto toasted baguette slices, or incorporated into warm dishes. For a simple appetizer, slice it and serve with fresh fruit like figs or berries.
