Cheese Blogging: Chevre

Chevre means goat in French. And the Cypress Grove Chevre I had today was definitely true to its provenance. This Purple Haze variety was both strong and oddly addicting. The soft texture, about the consistency of plan schmear at Einstein Bagels, was perfect for spreading on the garlic & herb crackers. I'd definitely get this one again. It was $6.99 for the small round, which was enough for a few of us to have quite a few crackers and cheese. Yummy for a sunny Friday afternoon in Philadelphia.

BTW: I said Petit Basque was next up. The chevre jumped in front, but I've tasted the PB and will give a review next time the Cheese Blogging fancy strikes me.
