By request, from the July 2009 spinning night…
Herbed Goat Cheese Dip / Spread
(inspired by a recipe from Epicurious.com, I forget which one, grr!)
10-12 ounces mild goat cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs (I used mostly tarragon and parsley, with some cilantro, a little bit of basil and a tiny bit of mint)
2-3 green onions, chopped
salt & pepper to taste
1/2 cup heavy cream
Mix together the goat cheese, chopped herbs, and green onions, adding salt and pepper to taste. In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream until slightly thickened, then fold into the goat cheese mixture. Refrigerate for a few hours to let the flavors meld, then bring to room temperature for better spreading consistency.
