Goat Cheese

Goat Cheese

Everyday

Goat cheese, also known as chèvre, is a cheese made from goat's milk, offering a tangy and slightly earthy flavor profile. The texture of goat cheese varies widely, ranging from soft and spreadable to firm and crumbly, depending on the aging process. It is a good source of protein and calcium, while often being more easily digestible than cheese made from cow's milk due to differences in fat and protein composition.
