  • Step 1

    Bring the vinegar, water, salt and honey to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the carrots and cut them to look like tagliatelle using a peeler.

  • Step 2

    Once the mixture is boiling, add the carrot strips. Cook for 1 minute, then take off the heat.

  • Step 3

    Pour into a jar. Add the peppercorns. Fill with the cooking liquid until the vegetables are completely covered. Refrigerate until completely cool.

  • Step 4

    Dice the beets and cut the apple into matchsticks. In a salad bowl, mix the mesclun salad, beets, fava beans, apple and strained carrot strips. Season with pepper, salt, lemon juice and olive oil. Sprinkle with the seed mixture.

  • Step 5

    Put two slices of the Ripened goat log on each slice of bread. Heat your oven grill to 200°C and bake for 10 minutes.

  • Step 6

    Serve the salad with the warm goat cheese.

  • Step 7

    Emulsify the oil and lemon juice together. Season with pepper only. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad, then add the bread and goat cheese slices. Add another drizzle of honey.

How to Use Goat Cheese in Classic Italian Dishes

Italian cooking is full of familiar flavours that pair naturally with goat cheese: ripe tomatoes, fragrant basil, roasted vegetables, mushrooms, olives, herbs and pesto, to name just a few. Exploring goat cheese in Italian cuisine does not mean replacing the cheeses traditionally associated with these dishes. Instead, it offers another way to interpret familiar favourites — bringing creaminess, a distinctive flavour or a different texture while preserving the character of the original dish.

From pizza and pasta to risotto and bruschetta, the key is choosing the right type of goat cheese for the role you want it to play.
