Salade de Chèvre Chaud

(1)
"I used to ask every friend or family member visiting me in the US to bring me some cheese from Europe #ad @cheesesofeurope @thefeedfeed Let me tell you something: my friends are super nice, but that request was not often met with joy. Granted, cheese is not the best thing to travel with because it can melt, leak, and, let's face it, smell a bit funny. I'm excited that @cheesesofeurope and @thefeedfeed asked me to partner with them to bring you my favorite salad of all time: warm goat cheese salad (salade de chèvre chaud). {side note: my friends are pretty excited they won't have to travel with cheese any more 😁} It's super delicious, looks quite fancy, but it's honestly one of the easiest salad to make. Find the recipe on @thefeedfeed. To learn more about these cheeses and to get your hands on your own, head here—> ff.recipes/CoE-Fanette What's your fave cheese recipe?"

ingredients

  • 1 (4 ounce) Bûche de chèvre
  • 3 slices of French bread or baguette.
  • Pinch of herbes de provence
  • 5 ounce green salad

ingredients

Vinaigrette:

  • 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • Kosher Salt, to taste.
  • Black Pepper, to taste.

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 450F degrees

  • Step 2

    Top the sliced bread with a ½ inch slice of goat cheese. (When serving a salad, I like to have 2 slices of cheese per person, but you can adapt based on appetite.)

  • Step 3

    Place the bread on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Bake for until cheese is melted and edges are nicely golden, about 10 minutes.

  • Step 4

    Meanwhile, prepare the balsamic vinaigrette. Place dijon mustard, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Whisk until well combined, then add olive oil and stir.

  • Step 5

    Serve a generous portion of green salad. (I prefer to use salad only, but feel free to add garnish of your choosing: shallots, onions, tomatoes, olives, etc.) Drizzle with the balsamic vinaigrette and place the warm slices of bread and cheese on top.

  • Step 6

    Sprinkle with a pinch of herbes de provence and enjoy while it's warm!
