Goats cheese... all flowers and sunlight.
Updated: May 27
Like many British people, I came to goat's cheese quite late in life. I mean, when I was a kid, you could order fruit juice as a starter in a fairly posh restaurant... yes, children, it was once thus. Anyway, in our house, goats didn't produce cheese, cows did. And they made it all in a place called Cheddar.
Britain in the seventies, was not a place where food was discussed with any particular reverence. It came either hot, or cold. Cold was for lunch, hot was for dinner. Breakfast could be either.
The French have always had a far more sophisticated and nuanced relationship with food. They were asking important questions in kitchens, when we were still boasting about how great we were at Agincourt. We were busy with other things.
