Marinated Goat Cheese

A jar of my marinated goat cheese makes an easy, tasty and lovely gift for the holidays. It’s spectacular simply slathered on crusty bread, crumbled on salads, even grilled and sandwiched in a baguette. It doesn’t require any cooking but it sure shows a lot of love. Give it as a hostess gift and share some yumminess.

  • 16 small crottins (or rounds) fresh goat cheese
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary thyme, oregano are really good substitutions
  • 4 small chili peppers

  • 2 cups olive oil enough to cover the cheese in the jar
Servings: large jars
Instructions
  1. Divide the cheese among 4 sterilized jars. Add the bay leaves and the rosemary sprigs to the jars.
  2. Cut the chilis in half. Cut 8 strips of zest from the lemon. Arrange the lemon strips and the chili next to the cheeses in the jars. Add the fennel seeds and the garlic cloves to the jars.

Recipe Notes

Store in the fridge for up to two weeks. Eat with some crusty bread or crumble on salads or grill on slices of baguette for a quick and easy crostino.
