Marinated Chèvre~

Watching Laura Calder.. the other night..although it was a repeat..My eye caught something different this time..Last time it was her potatoes baked with bacon and cheese:) This time it was the marinated chèvre~


You will need a sterilized jar~



2 Bay leaves
peppercorns
4 fresh peeled garlic cloves
thyme
Olive Oil
Goat cheese
the rind of one lemon



Slice 1 inch thick goat cheese..pack all the ingredients into your jar with the Goat Cheese and top with EVOO..Place in the refrigerator.
Lasts up to one month in the fridge.
Serve w/ baguette,crackers etc..

I used my home grown garlic,thyme and bay leaves..I added a Nasturtium from my garden for the pleasure of seeing it in the jar~:)


I am making another small jar today..In fact I could enjoy making many...I gave this one away.. and I want to tell you if I liked tasting it as much ~

    Ohhh, this reminds me of a pickled dish that I haven't made in a long time. Is the taste of this marinated chevre salty or sour? The arrangement is very pretty. Looks like something you can place on your shelf as decoration! I think it will be a wonderful project for my older children to do. Every jar will be unique :)

    How pretty with the nasturtium in the jar. How I wish I liked goat cheese - perhaps I would like it marinated! I could just enjoy looking at it anyway :)

    The marinated cheese is a wonderful idea and I must agree with Kathy, a very cool present as well.

    I made another caramelized onion session today this time really with puff pastry, you remember?... I will post it next time. My family love it.

    How gorgeous!...and to think I passed on planting nasturtiums this year :-( Perhaps a flowering herb will do. I love the idea and keep chevre on hand most of the time, thanks for the inspiration!
