MEREDITH DAIRY
MARINATED CHEVRE
A local favourite, Meredith Dairy produces one of the country's best goat milk chèvre's. Chèvre, pronounced 'shev' is a traditional fresh goat's milk cheese originating from France, essentially meaning, 'goats milk'.
This fresh chèvre is tangy, slightly tart with zesty citrus notes and a soft mild crumbly texture. It is highly versatile in cooking, pairing and eating. It can be used in tarts, salads, appetisers or simply on fresh crusty baguette!
An added bonus, it is both lower in fat and higher in Vitamin A and Potassium than cows milk cheeses.
This marinated chèvre by Meredith Dairy is, so delicious, you will be licking the jar clean, we guarantee it! The cheese is doused in a marinate of oil, infused with garlic and beautiful soft herbs. Try some on fresh baguette or crackers. It marries well with many salads including beetroot, tomatoe and couscous salad.
And dont forget to add it tonyour side of smashed avocado and eggs for breakfast. It will certainly elevate every meal!
